California Coast: Whale World! (Part II)
It’s a spectacular year for whale sightings off the California Coast, with blue whales and humpbacks in abundance. Why are they here in such large numbers, and how can we best experience them? We continue our discussion with Mary Jane Schramm, media and public outreach specialist for Gulf of the Farallones National Marine Sanctuary. Find out what we can do to help whales survive—and thrive—for future generations of avid whale watchers.
