Description:
Sightings of right whales, Eubalaena glacialis, in Massachusetts
waters have been recorded by workers at Woods Hole Oceanographic
In stitution since 1955. These observations do not represent a census,
because emphasis was placed on studying the whales' underwater sounds and
other activities. The number of yearly sightings varied from 2 to 165.
Observations were made from aircraft, boats, and occasionally from shore.
