The whales do not sing because they have an answer, they sing because they have a song. Humpback whales are found in every ocean in this world. Growing up to 16ft in length, their Latin name, Megaptera novaeangliae, means "The big wing of New England" which justifies the location this sight was captured. These magnificent creatures are perhaps known for their magical songs. Consisting of a complex sequence of moans, howls, cries, and other noises that often go on for hours, they traverse great distances through the oceans. Scientists hypothesize that these complex sounds are most probably a method to attract potential mates.
