This Seems Like Good News
Right Whale numbers have tripled since the nadir. That's still only about 350 whales and they are not recovering as fast as other species, but still, 350 is better than extinction.
They were named Right Whales because they were slow, full of oil and baleen, stayed near the coast and floated after death. They were the right whale to hunt.
I hope to see some this late Spring. I will report.
