MIGRATION

Migration routes of humpback and gray whales are very similar. Both species tend to migrate and breed close to shore, where they were easily hunted. Both species are on the comeback. The gray whale was removed from the endangered species list in 1994. This shows a possible change in where they mate. The western Pacific population of gray whales that may still breed south of Korea also appear to be growing strong again. Gray whales used to live in the North Atlantic region until they were nearly completely wiped out in the last 100 years.
