"North Atlantic Right Whale" 15oz Combo Mug
The North-Atlantic right whale is mostly found along the Atlantic coast of North America, where it is threatened by entanglement in fishing gear and ship collisions. Some scientists believe these whales have already been extirpated from the eastern North Atlantic and now survive only on the east coast of the U.S. and Canada. Between 300 and 350 individuals still exist, but despite seven decades of protection efforts, no population growth has been observed. The right whale belongs to the suborder Mysticeti, and is characterized by a symmetrical skull, paired blowholes, and rows of baleen plates for feeding on plankton. This is a relatively slow swimmer, averaging about 8 kph (6 mph). It usually makes a series of 5 or 6 shallow dives and then submerges for about 20 minutes. Right whales emit a number of low frequency sounds, mostly during courtship. During the spring and summer, North Atlantic right whales migrate north to feed. Females head south in autumn to give birth to their calves in temperate waters. They usually do not fear boats and can be easily approached by them.
