    By Presented by Madeleine Finlay with Emma Bryce . Produced by Madeleine Finlay, Joshan Chana and Jacob Liebenberg . The executive producer was Ellie Bury

    Ever since the earliest known recording of whale song was made in 1949, researchers have been captivated by the wails, rumbles, clicks, grunts and squeals of their communication. As technology improves, scientists are decoding the intricate patterns that make different species’ vocalisations distinctive. Madeleine Finlay hears from Emma Bryce, a journalist who has spent months investigating human efforts to understand whale song. She explains how this knowledge could help us better protect whales from human-made harms.
