Only #HumpbackWhale is capable of #bubblenet feeding, study finds
In a surprising discovery, a new study reveals that among seven species of #baleen #whales, only the humpback is capable of the high-performance turns required for its signature bubble-net feeding strategy.
The research shows #humpbacks use their unique pectoral flippers to achieve this maneuver, shedding new light on the biomechanics of this iconic feeding strategy.

Hear how baby #Humpback #Whales burp and bark to beg for food.
The burps, barks and snorts #humpbackwhales make when asking their mother for milk are the first recorded instances of begging-like behavior in a #baleen whale.

#Baleen is a filter-feeding system inside the mouths of baleen whales. To use baleen, the whale first opens its mouth underwater to take in water. The whale then pushes the water out, and animals such as krill are filtered by the baleen and remain as a food source for the whale. Baleen is similar to bristles and consists of

How #baleen #whales have adapted over past 50M years
The new study "Into the Blue: Exploring #genetic mechanisms behind the #evolution of #baleenwhales," explores key genetic adaptations of these diverse #whale species around #oceans—giving new insights into risks and opportunities for their survival. The study looks at intriguing mammals—from gigantism of largest blue and fin whales, to diving and migratory abilities of other whales: including humpbacks, minkes & gray.

#Baleen plates provide new insight on life history of blue and fin whales https://phys.org/news/2024-07-baleen-plates-insight-life-history.html Paper by Malia Smith et al.: https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/ece3.11376
"The analysis revealed approximately six years of life history data for blue whales and four years for fin #whales... providing a unique window into their behaviors over 80 years ago... The research was conducted using samples collected in the late 1940s that were recently rediscovered in the #Smithsonian National Museum of Natural History."

These #Whales Still Use Their #VocalCords.
Unusual experiments on organs recovered from three carcasses suggest how #baleen whales call out at #sea. #Toothedwhales, like #spermwhales and #dolphins, use their larynges like a cork to seal their airways; they evolved a way to produce sounds in their nasal cavities instead. But #scientists suspected that filter-feeding #baleenwhales, including the musical #humpbacks and huge #bluewhales, still use their voice boxes. https://www.nytimes.com/2024/02/21/science/whale-song-voice-box.html?unlocked_article_code=1.XE0.Ohuo.tSXoT0veB5Lc&smid=url-share -

The iconic #baleen #whales, such as the blue, gray and #humpback whale, depend on sound for communication in the vast #marine #environment where they live. However, ever since whale song were first discovered more than 50 years ago, it remained unknown how baleen whales produce their complex #vocalizations

A 19-million-year-old #fossil #jaw #bone hints the biggest #whales first evolved somewhere unexpected
Scientists previously thought baleen whales kept to relatively small proportions until the ice ages (which began from about 3–2.5 million years ago). Roughly 19 million years old, this fossil is the tip of the lower #jaws (or "chin") of a #baleen #whale estimated to be around nine meters in length, which makes it the new record holder from its time.
