The Drone Project - Fin whale entanglement rates in Canada (Gulf of St. Lawrence)
ATTENTION: This footage was obtained under Federal Permit # QUE-LEP-003-2018 for the purpose of scientific research.
In 2018, MICS piloted a new study method to study fishing gear entanglement scars in fin whales and blue whales using aerial imagery, collected by Unmanned Aerial Systems (UAS, aka drones). Most entanglements scars on whales appear around the peduncle and tail part of the body, which fin and blue whales most frequently keep below the surface, and are therefore not visible from the surface. Using this new method, MICS was able to photo-identify whales and detect scars which would otherwise not have been seen.

Bubblenet feeding in the St. Lawrence
Переглядів 9075 років тому
Our first video of the year is a throwback to a special moment, recorded by MICS researchers in August 2018. Researchers witnessed two humpback whales partaking in a foraging technique called bubblenet feeding. This feeding behaviour is an extremely rare event in the St. Lawrence, and is usually observed in the Gulf of Maine and the Bay of Fundy, among other places. Our collaborators from the C...

North Atlantic right whales: a tender moment in the St. Lawrence
Переглядів 3786 років тому
The MICS research team had a rare encounter with two female right whales on August 19th, 2018. As the sun was setting on a calm day in the St. Lawrence, we came across a pair that was exhibiting behaviour typical of surface-active groups (SAG). This behaviour has been well-documented in North Atlantic right whales, and has been linked to mating behaviour, as well as play and social bonding. We ...
Harp seals swimming on their backs
Переглядів 1,6 тис.6 років тому
Harp seals (Phoca groenlandica) are often seen in large groups of between tens to hundreds of individuals in the St. Lawrence. They will often swim on their backs at the surface - it is thought that this allows them to better scan the environment below, because their eyes are positioned toward the top of their head.

RARE FOOTAGE OF FIN WHALE GROUP BEHAVIOUR
Переглядів 53 тис.6 років тому
MICS uses drones as the main tool in its entanglement research project to assess scarring rates in fin whales. Those amazing clips provide us with a brand new perspective that allows us to see things we normally wouldn’t. It appears that a couple of individuals each approach the animal ahead of them from the right to nudge them. Those individuals react by shifting direction slightly and rolling...

Amazing whale
Nice capture
Wow!
J'espère y aller un jour. Merci pour cette belle opportunité!
Wow! Quelle merveille!
Je vous souhaite de faire avancer les recherches!
Wow! Je me demande si elles ont une hiérarchie entre elles.
Magnifique!
J'adore!
Belle famille!
Longue vie à cette baleine franche!
Ça été le rêve de ma vie depuis que je suis toute petite. Bravo à ces biologistes qui aident à la recherche sur ces beautés marines.
Il ya de l'action!
C'est magnifique et touchant à la fois.
Wow!
Bravo pour votre implication!
Wow! J'aurais aimé vivre cette vie de recherche...Je vous admire!
C'est spécial!
Longue vie à la recherche! Ça me donne envie de m'impliquer! Merci pour ces vidéos!
C'est si triste ce que l'humain fait subir à ces baleines...
C'est magnifique! La perfection en plein fleuve! Je suis émerveillée par tant de beauté. Merci de ce partage!
Wow!!
Pillows
They behave well, I'd say.
amazing ❤️ 🐋
I can appreciate the scramble to get your drone up and filming a rare event. To the point your excitement can hamper your piloting skills. Fin Whales for me are one of the most beautiful Whale species. Thanks for the upload
Piloting skills suck. Then again, marine biology academic types.
Was this fillmed in Quebec or BC? I lived on the tip of Quebec as a kid, got to swim with the orcas in the Atlantic, now I was to dive off bc for humpbacks and ottters❤️❤️❤️♥️
The 'group' is called a Pod.
save whales. kill sharks.
Save whales and sharks!
survival of the fittest :)
my favorite whale 🐋
I m so fucking scared of finwhales. I would piss my shit if I ever saw one. Jesus christ look at that. A dinosaur. Why does this look so similar to a dino wjyjjyhyyhhy
Fin Whales look nothing like a dinosaur. They are harmless filter feeders that prey on small fish, they arent a threat to humans.
cool footage
This is CGI 👎🏾👎🏾👎🏾.
I thought so too!
IMPRESIONANTE!👏👏👏👏
Awesome filming and educational content. I really love the sane way you present information and your cause too - Merci :)
I loveeeeeee whales, awsome nature, thank you God for all of your 🌷amazing creations ❤️
God doesn't exist
Me too. Since I was a child I have adored whales and dolohins
@@dragogaming5164 That is in your opinion. You are entitled to it
Very graceful ty!
Beautiful!
This looks like CGI... Is this real for real?? If so then... Amazing footage
Other than size and color is there any difference between blue whale and fin whale
Fin whales generally appear to be thinner
Fin Whales Have A Really Fin Shape
Fins are really fast above and below. Have experienced it at the upper end of the Sea of Cortez. I watched two Fins above water do the most incredible and unexpected behavior. They broke the surface and stayed above for well over a quarter mile.

Hi there! I just wanted to tell you that you have created an awesome video which shows the beauty of the ocean at its purest. I was also wondering if I could have your permission to use 20-30 seconds of your movie for a school IT project about the conservation of oceans and marine life. I would be very grateful if you allow me to. Thank you in advance!!!
Le rêve de tout une vie , très belle vidéo et projet !
Too bad it almost extinct 😢😢
WTF are you talking about? Fin Whales aren't even endangered. What you should be worried about are the North Atlantic Right Whales.
thx for sharing
Nothing like seeing whales hanging out together. Interesting nudging behavior there, but it didn't seem aggressive, maybe just a friendly tap?
yeah rorqual whales don't even display aggression at all I don't think, except humpbacks, even when attacked
So many shivers! This is amazing. Thank you!
I love this but can someone please add some ID cards? I see some Humpbacks, some Grey Seals and I think Minke but what's the HOLY BIG monster at 0:25? Is that a Blue or a Fin Whale?
Hello! Thanks for asking. The species present - from what we could see - were humpback whales, fin whales, minke whales, harp seals, arctic terns, common gulls, gannets and, of course, capelin :) And the animal at 0:25 is indeed a fin whale close up - you can tell by the light pigmentation (blaze and chevron).
