Scientists have figured out how big whales like humpbacks make their amazing songs underwater.
They discovered that these whales have a special “voice box” that lets them sing.
This finding also explains why the noise we make in the ocean bothers them. Whales rely on sound to find mates, but our noisy ships make it hard for them.
This study sheds light on how these mysterious creatures communicate and how important it is to protect them from our ocean noise.
It’s like solving a puzzle of how whales talk and understanding how we affect their lives.
