Whales communicate with one another

Whales communicate with one another


Tests and studies have shown that all whale species use sound for a number of different purposes: to navigate, to detect food, and to communicate with one another over long distances.
The haunting call of the blue whale is the most intense of any animal alive. These rhythmic pulses and deep moans are so loud they travel across entire oceans, yet the frequency of these calls is often so low that they are totally inaudible to human ears.

You got me. I thought you were talking about whales on Steemit. Good one. Upvoted.

I thought everyone would find this amusing, so glad to hear it.
Of course the haunting call of the Blue Whale is inaudible. LOL

National Geographic does say all whales. As for Steemit whales, one can never be to sure.
Thanks for the upvote and comment @sponge-bob!
