Dear Marmamers,
last week fishermen from Galicia (NW Spain) told us
that they saw a whale around 10 - 12m length with a yellow label/mark at its
back swimming to the North Atlantic. We can't confirm the identification of the
species but as 15 days before a fin whale calve of more or less
the same length stranded at the coast, we suppose that it could be also a calve
or a juvenile of this species.
Somebody is using this yellow marks for the identification of fin whales
or tracking them?
Thank
you!
Cheers,
Ángela
Llavona
