Volume up to hear it! This regional-specific behavioral distinction suggests aggregate or community adaptive behaviors among subspecies of minke whales. | Ocean Conservation Research - OCR | Facebook

Open wide: Dwarf Minke Whale. Minke whales feed by side-lunging into schools of prey and gulping large amounts of water. They won't feed like this when visiting the waters of the northern Great Barrier Reef, but sometimes you'll still get to see this gulping display. Not long to go until they'll be back for this year's season. Report any sightings using the Great Barrier Reef Marine Park Authority Eye on the Reef app. 📽 Master Reef Guide Pablo Cogollos with Mike Ball Dive Expeditions | Master R
