There’s some good news for the endangered North Atlantic right whale.
The recently ended calving season, which runs between mid-November and mid-April, saw 23 new calves born.
This is the fourth highest number of new calves born on record and the highest it’s been since 2009.
Amy Warren, scientific program officer with the New England Aquarium’s Anderson Cabot Center for Ocean Life, said her colleagues were surprised to see so many new calves born this season.
