The whale known for its songs is the humpback whale. These remarkable creatures are famous for their complex and haunting vocalizations, which can travel long distances underwater. Humpback whales use these songs during mating season, possibly as a means to attract mates or establish territory. The songs change over time and differ among populations, suggesting a dynamic form of communication within and between groups. The vocalizations consist of a series of moans, howls, and cries, often lasting up to 30 minutes at a time. Researchers study these songs to better understand whale behavior and ecosystem dynamics.
