Description
The humpback whale (Megaptera novaeangliae) is a representative of the furrow whale that often occurs near the coast. It reaches a body size of 12 to 15 meters and has significantly larger flippers compared to other whales. The animals are known among other things for their whale song and their liveliness. Due to the intensive hunting, the global stocks temporarily decreased threateningly. The humpback whale has been under worldwide species protection since 1966.
