The humpback whale migrates annually up to 25,000 km between polar feeding grounds and tropical breeding waters. This seasonal migration allows the whales to take advantage of abundant food sources in polar regions and warm waters for reproduction. Scientists believe the whales' ability to detect the Earth's magnetic field and utilize echolocation over distances of 100 km helps them precisely navigate these long-distance migrations.

GODD AFTERNOON TEACHER AND CLASSMATES TODAY IM GOING
TO PRESENT MY PROJECT ADVANCED 8 ,UNIT 5, ABOUT A ANIMAL MIGRATION, IN THIS CASE THE JOMPBACK WHALE
NEXT
The JOMPBACK whale, also called only
JOMPBACK, is one of the largest animals in the world, for their immense dimensions, adults have a LENGFT of 12 to 16 MIRERS and an weight around 36 tons, the SPISHIS has a distinctive and incredible body shape, with long fins and a knobby head. their life ExPECTancy is approximately 75 years thanks to the current conditions, but in the past, they could’ve lived 20 years more… And another interesting thing is that the whale live without an established habitat because of the constantly migration.
NEXT
EXPLICAR PORQUE MIGRA , QUE TIPO DE MIGRACION ES?1M
it is disTRIUbuded throughout all the oceans
and seas of the world; they TYPICLI migrate up to 25,thousands km each year….. wow. Also the JOMPBACK whales are opportunistic PREDADORS in the polar regions and migrate to troPIKAL and subtroPIKAL waters and there, they dedicate to reproduce.
This type of migration is known as seasonal
migration, while the winter passes they subsist thanks to their fat RE-SERVS. The whale has a large repertoire of feeding TECNIKS, including the bubble netting, which must have been difficult to perfect during the evolution.

But what many people wonder is how do
these incredible animals know WHEN and WHERE to migrate? Well, scientists thinks that whales may have evolved to get the ability to perceive the Earth's magnetic FI-ELD that helps them to know when to migrate, but subsequently there appear two diferent theories to explain this ability. One proposed that it came from iron-binding MOLE-KIULS, and the other pointed to a protein called cryptochrome, which perceives summer and winter light, but neither is entirely clear. It would be nice if we fully knew it. but I supossed they could’t have found more evidence of this.
And with respect to how they Ó-rient
themselves, the scientist A-summ that over the years whales may have PERFEK-TED their hearing and this can be NOU-DIS when they sings and the sound travel one houndred kilometers, and that’s amazing;thanks to that they can geolocate themselves in the space.
