Humpback Whales

The key ways is to reduce human activity that effects the humpback whale directly and indirectly. Human activity includes, Bycatch of their food, Whaling for their blubber, pollution, ship collision and whale watch effects. These are their only threats and all of them are human activities, so it's preventable. A good way to start is to raise money for a campaign or a organisation that directly tries to save the whale.

The surplus amount of blubber and warmblooded nature, and the huge amount of fish that lives in that part of the ocean, oh i almost forgot, the fact that its large body mass and tender skin(if you will call it that) it is hard for the cold to penetrate its thick layers.

Adult Humpback whales are known to have an average lifespan of around 50 to 60 years. For decades man has hunted them extensively and hence we really do not know what their actual life expectancy is. Researchers recently discovered that a whale nearly 200 years old was captured near Alaska.

Currently in the North Pacific, there is a large female who is 64 years old, and about 63 feet long. She is well known to researchers. During whaling the largest humpback was over 90 feet long, a female, and we will never know how old she was.

baby humpback whales are 2 1/2 tons when they are born

Yes, whales and dolphins do sleep; however, they do not sleep in the same way that humans do. For example, while human sleep involves a period of unconsciousness followed by a period of conscious dreaming or REM sleep, cetaceans (whales and dolphins) show a pattern of unihemispheric slow-wave sleep, meaning that they only sleep with one half of their brain at a time. This allows them to remain aware of their surroundings and continue to surface for air, even while sleeping.

there are 925 bones in a humpback whales body

The humpback is a predator, taking krill and small schooling fish, such as herring, salmon, capelin and sand lance as well as mackerel, pollock and haddock in the North Atlantic. Krill and copepods have been recorded from Australian and Antarctic waters. Humpbacks hunt by direct attack or by stunning prey by hitting the water with pectoral fins or flukes

are yu taking the wee how the suck me ment to know

The Humpback Whales live incoastal orcontinental self waters.

Well, they don't, no whale can breath under water. For they are they only water mammal. They have blow holes on the top of them. Once down for a period of time, they will re-surface and breath.

Not always. Fifty million years ago, there were no whales. Their ancestors were land animals who evolved slowly. Baleen whales begin to evolve from their toothed ancestors about 30 million years ago.

yes, a killer whale or the orca sometimes live in the sunlight zone

Adult blue whales have no natural predators. They are too big and too strong to be attacked and killed by any animal. However, Orca's (Killer Whales) are known to attack and kill youngsters. A group of Orca's can easily hunt a baby blue whale if its mother is not around. Otherwise, they have no natural predators

Humans are the biggest threat to blue whales. Nearly 90% of the world population of these animals were wiped out over the past century by humans by whaling.

Humpback whales have many diverse adaptations. They have flukes which are tail fins that propel them faster. This is especially important to the whales during migration. They also have throat grooves which help them filter water away from their prey.

most blue whales live for 80-90 yrs. the oldest one known of was 110 yrs. old.

hoped this helped!

The length of a whale depends on what species of whale. Blue Whales have been known to grow up to 100 feet. Whereas dwarf sperm whales can only grow to 9 feet.

60,000 i dont think that but if u write humpback whales in google u will find answer in there or answer.com or wilkapedia. if u dont like it that answer please relplay the right answe please thanx you?

The humpback whale habitat is in all the oceans in the world.

Yes. Occasionally, belugas encounter killer whales, polar bears and Greenland sharks. Ice can be a shelter from these predators; killer whales, with their tall dorsal fins, usually don't follow belugas beneath the ice pack. But ice can be dangerous too! Belugas can get trapped under ice without a breathing hole. Humans also hunt belugas for food.
