There was an unusual occurrence in January 2013 when Wart (#1140) appeared in Cape Cod Bay with a calf, but we don't feel this was a case of displacement. Thank you for your concern though, and for supporting conservation efforts!

I hope it continues to prevent collisions between ships and whales. I would like to point out, as a response to the comment from Anonymous on 1/3/14 that the whales were not displaced, but they migrate. They spend their springs and summers in the northeast feeding and breeding and many travel to the southeast U.S.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-878077664833865072.post-50191332857343567262014-01-03T13:41:10.319-05:002014-01-03T13:41:10.319-05:00Great news!

They've been displaced, possibly from BP tragedy and there is nothing more sad that taking my daughter on my favorite childhood whale watch, to see square finned whales. There was a petition at South Stationback in 2008 or so and I am so glad I wrote a check!! I do hope there is visibility into the shipping industry and Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-878077664833865072.post-83369597904214310622013-12-09T08:23:10.805-05:002013-12-09T08:23:10.805-05:00Hurray, finally whales win.
