Fin whales typically breed during the late winter to early spring months, with specific timing varying by geographic location. In warmer waters, breeding can occur from late December to early April. Mating often coincides with their migration patterns, as they travel to warmer regions for calving. After a gestation period of about 11 to 12 months, calves are usually born in the spring or early summer.
