Contributor Scientific Article

Back in the year of 2017, we met with a scientific team preoccupied with documenting humpback whales feeding behaviour with fishing boats. They used cameras on whales, to enhance the understanding of the feeding. At the time we were frequenting fishing boats, and happily shared our findings with the team.

Six years later, the article has finally been published by our friend Takashi Iwata from Japan. It features stills from our work documenting whales under fishing boats back in the day. For a detailed read, click here.

Some of the original footage can be seen here.
