Humpback Whales

Narrated by actor Ewan McGregor, 'Humpback Whales' is an extraordinary journey into the mysterious world of one of nature's most awe-inspiring marine mammals. Set in the spectacular waters of Alaska, Hawaii, and Tonga, this ocean adventure offers audiences an up-close look at how these whales communicate, sing, feed, play, and take care of their young. Humpbacks are found in every ocean on Earth, but were nearly driven to extinction 50 years ago. Today they are making a slow but remarkable recovery.

Join a team of researchers as they unlock the secrets of the humpback and find out why they sing their haunting songs, and why these intelligent,16-metre, 45 000-kilogram animals migrate up to 16 000 kilometres round-trip every year.
