Whale Color Study


Sperm Whale... May I correct myself... Still researching... Sperm Whales are not the largest of all whales... only the "toothed" whales.. according to http://cetus.ucsd.edu/voicesinthesea_org/Flash/ (a site I recently found.)

Here is a color study of many to come on whales.

Whales



Working on a conceptual poster on saving whales against military sonar testing. The whales breed, hunt, live-- depending on sound and over the past decade have been disrupted by sonar testing, believed to cause the deaths of many.

This the Humpback whale: known for its large size and interestingly their "songs" are the longest organized sound, other than humans. ...some songs are 5 to 15 minutes long. ( Could go on "singing" for over 36 hrs- thats quite the concert)

The second is the famous Moby Dick whale- The sperm whale- the largest of the whale species and a fact about them: Their communication of "clicking" sounds- ( also used to hunt- in the same way as sonar waves use to detect) are the loudest sound made by any animal.

Still developing the concept- and enjoying the research!
