Whale, that’s all folks as we wave goodbye to the #HumpackWhales for another year on the @gbrmarinepark 🐋 Migrating to our tropical waters each year to mate and birth, each individual Humpback can travel up to 10,000 kilometers on their return journey from the Antarctic waters. After being hunted to near extinction throughout the mid-late 1900’s, the Humpback has become one of Mother Nature’s true success stories. The population of Humpback Whales is estimated to grow around 10-12% each year on the East Coast of @australia, with around 40,000 individuals migrating to the @queensland waters this year! 🎥 @jaxonark #SeetheReef #LovetheReef #ProtecttheReef #Queensland #Australia
