If it is the same one spotted in Florida, I think it is more likely that it came thru the Panama Canal or around South America.
Climate change causes extinct species to reappear.
Is there nothing it can not do?
Temperature change effects the nature and quality of the rains that fall producing the continental erosion of mineral salts that actually create oceanic salinity. The oceanic salinity is manifested in differential oceanic water strata that change the fish and marine organism balance.
The oceanic strata have now resumed a disposition favored by gray whales
He fancied a swim
to waters less grim
So he went to the beaches of Phuket
If you're going to apply spots to whales, Nantucket's the place to do that:
There once was an artist from Nantucket
Who kept all of his spots in a bucket.
When along came a whale
That was wagging its tail
He used up all his spots as he stuck it.
One news show I saw mentioned it may have come thru the NW Passage last summer/fall................
I’m pretty sure the whale used Amtrak to save its strength. Or maybe Delta airlines on a Boeing 737 so it could bang open the defective door and slide right out in the ocean.
They over fished, and the population has recovered. It’s nature.
The whale was probably there searching for limericks.
This is a simple example of evolution happening right before our eyes! One day, scientific experts were looking at a pool of primordial soup, and a year later, POOF. That guy Darwin is so smart!
“Scientists say climate change may be why the species has reappeared.”
Yeah? So, climate change is good now?
Climate Change can raise the dead!.....................
“Heal the sick, raise the dead. Make the little girls talk outta their heads. I’m the one, oh, I’m the one. I’m the one, I’m the one. The one they call the seventh son”
Only change the last part to “they call the climate change son”
Hillary in the water?
Maybe the gray whales are fleeing the left coast for less crime and taxes.
Maybe the GRAY whales are fleeing the left coast because of the GAY whales...............
If it was last seen in the 1800’s wasn’t that during the “Little Ice Age”. And if so, wouldn’t the NW passage been frozen shut? Asking for a friend.
They were hunted to extinction in the Atlantic, and it took them this long to filter back from the Pacific, possibly through the NW Passage.........................
Extinct is an absolute. It is or it isn't. There's no such thing as "extinct in one location but extant in another."
