Southern Right Whale, Eubalaena australis - Mammalia Reference Library - redOrbit

Southern Right Whale, Eubalaena australis - Mammalia Reference Library - redOrbit: "The total population numbers of the southern right whale are thought to be around ten thousand individuals. By studying populations found in South African, South American, and Australian waters, it has been found that these populations do not interbreed often. This is due to a mother’s choice to remain loyal to past breeding areas, and young females are able to choose this loyalty when they are able to breed."
