Many types of whales migrate, with the timing being different depending on the species of the whale. Some seem to migrate to warmer waters in the winter, while others migrate when they are ready to give birth.

∙ 11y agoThe humpback males are said to migrate every year, in the winter months, heading down (if north hemisphere) and up (if southern hemisphere) to breeding grounds to mate. Females may go if they wish to become pregnant, or if about to give birth from mating the year before. Southern Hemisphere migration season is opposite that of northern.

∙ 12y agoEach October, as the northern ice pushes southward, small groups of gray whales in the eastern Pacific start a two to three-month, 8,000-11,000 kilometers trip south. Traveling night and day, the gray whale averages approximately 120 kilometers per day at an average speed of 8 kilometers per hour. This round trip of 16,000-22,000 kilometers is believed to be the longest annual migration of any mammal
