A note on the movement of a humpback whale from Abrolhos Bank, Brazil to South Georgia / Peter T. Stevick, Luiza Pacheco de Godoy, Megan McOsker, Márcia H. Engel, Judith Allen.

Title: A note on the movement of a humpback whale from Abrolhos Bank, Brazil to South Georgia / Peter T. Stevick, Luiza Pacheco de Godoy, Megan McOsker, Márcia H. Engel, Judith Allen.

Date: 2006.
In: Journal of Cetacean Research and Management. (2006.), Vol. 8(3) (2006)
Abstract: Presents photographs of distinctive marking on humpback whale flukes of individual, taken off Brazil in August 2000 at largest breeding and calving ground for humpback whales in western South Atlantic, and in December 2004 near Shag Rocks off South Georgia. Migratory distance between two sites is 23,945 km, and finding constitutes first long-distance individual re-sighting to be documented from either of these areas, though it has long been assumed that individuals feeding in Scotia Sea migrate to areas off Brazil.
