"How do you think researchers identify individual right whales?"

Our class studies whales in the Voyage of the Mimi program. Their answer
to your question is:

" SCIENTISTS IDENTIFY RIGHTWHALES BY THEIR CALLOSITIES, THE BUMPS
ON THEIR HEAD."

Thank you for your wonderful Web site. We plan on following the migration
patterns of the whales for this winter and spring.
