Grey whales shrinking fast as climate warms | Borneo Bulletin Online

This difference in size is significant, and it is attributed to the impact of climate change on the grey whale population. The study, published in the journal “Nature,” highlights the alarming impact of climate change on the grey whale population. The researchers used drone images to capture the whales’ size, providing a unique and non-invasive method for studying these elusive creatures.

The study focused on the North Atlantic right whale, a critically endangered species. The researchers studied the North Atlantic right whale’s feeding and breeding patterns, and analyzed the relationship between energy reserves and reproductive success. The study found that the North Atlantic right whales have a complex relationship with energy reserves. While energy reserves are crucial for survival, they can also hinder reproductive success. This is because the whales need to balance their energy expenditure for feeding and migration with the energy required for reproduction.
