The forecast looked good…until the fog descended. We had glimpses of a blue, fin and southern right whale but couldn’t collect any data due to the fog.

Hope you're having a whale-y good day this #WorldWhaleDay 🐋
Humpback whales are key krill predators - so managing krill fishing sites and volumes is super important!
Here's Steph from @wildwaterwhales.bsky.social to fill you in on their work with these gentle giants ⬇️
