  7. #GrayWhale, Long Absent From #Atlantic, Is Spotted Off Massachusetts
    Gray #whales are regularly found in #Pacific, but sightings in Atlantic are extremely rare. #Climatechange is largely to blame for sightings. #NorthwestPassage, which connects Atlantic & Pacific, has been #icefree during summer months in recent years. Without ice, gray whales were able to swim through the passage, something that would not have been possible in the last century. nytimes.com/2024/03/06/science

    One of the great tales of evolution is the whales. That tiny, tree living creatures would become gigantic, secondarily aquatic mammals is fascinating, and fills the oceans with many fine forms of cetaceans.
