Bowhead whales are known to carry their calves on their backs to help them conserve energy and stay close to the surface for breathing. This behavior allows the calves to rest while their mothers swim, ensuring the young whales receive adequate care and protection from potential predators. Additionally, it facilitates bonding and socialization between the mother and calf during the early stages of life.
