Right whale calving season has begun

"Early last month, WHOI Scientist Michael Moore and his team spotted the first North Atlantic right whale calf in Cape Cod Bay, the summer feeding grounds for this species. Seven known calves (so far) have been born this year—an improvement given that no right whale calves were reported in 2018—but Moore said this number is not enough for the population to grow." - Excerpt from Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution
