#FinWhales, #HumpbackWhales, and common #minke whales now gather along a coastline where all three were once rarely seen. Researchers say warmer water, retreating sea ice, and a major relocation of their prey have allowed the whales to expand deep into the Greenland Sea, including waters north of the Arctic Circle.
Dramatic examples of how #climatechange can reorganize an ecosystem.
