Nearly 100 years after southern right whales were first protected from hunting, they face a new challenge: how to find food in a changing ocean.
Scientists have successfully attached satellite tracking tags to six New Zealand southern right whales, or tohorā, and are inviting the public to follow the whales’ travels online.
To celebrate the global event and to highlight the plight of Aotearoa New Zealand’s Antipodean albatross, a team from the sporting, ocean conservation and creative sectors joined forces to tell this important story.
This pilot study is a first glimpse of where today’s Tohorā go to feed in summer – and it shows a startling change from the whaling era. With only 2 of probably 2,000 Tohorā tracked, we need more information to understand how often the new and old feeding grounds are used. Live Ocean is helping to fund this important research being done by the University of Auckland.
We’re on a mission to create 1,000 postcards to protect the Hauraki Gulf and we need your help.
Send us your favourite ocean photo and a few words about what you love most about the Gulf, and together, we’ll spotlight why the Gulf deserves urgent protection – for us, and for future generations.
