Look at a globe or photo of earth from space and you can see our blue planet, with the continents surrounded by ever-circulating, briny waters of the sea. Perhaps no living thing has a better appreciation of the continuity of the seas than the largest animals in them: whales. Using the full width, length and breadth from continent to continent, they travel to warm waters for birthing their young, then saunter endless miles to frigid polar seas that teem with arthropods and fish. Whales are one of our most amazing co-inhabitants of the planet.
Directly off our coast every spring, gray whales parade past our shores in the longest migration of any mammal. Sometimes we can even see them even closer to home when they occasionally enter the Bay, as one did recently. Here's footage from KRON, and you can read more on their website about these migrating whales.
