It'd be very scary to encounter a Blue Whale, they're like So giant (lol), but at the same time magnificent. I haven't got this clear, can we humans hear their "songs"? or only through audio devices?
The meaning of a blue whale call? Does this imply human meaning? Or Blue Whale meaning? B/c without drawing a distinction between the various types of understanding relevant to each species, this topic may become convoluted and be less than academic. It's probably as simple as a mating call, or a call to negotiate territory between other big whales in order to establish a territory without coming to blows.
Then again, if it is a SONG we're talking about, maybe we CAN discuss blue whale song-dialogue as sharing a sort of kindredship with human musicians who communicate on-stage with their instruments as a similar process. Think of 2 musicians as 2 blue whales... both of which communicate in a way that resonates with the other to maximum benefit. Having the capacity to fill each other with beautiful things, resonating very deeply is a way to encode certain information. Unspoken words that carry
It must suck to be a normal whale swimming around then hear this loud obnoxious blue whale call from the other side of the ocean, try to scream at them to shut up and never being heard because your body isn't large enough to propel your song as far as theirs.
@Justaguy124 more than a hundred in USA?? in Japan there are more than 20'000 kills every year of the whale kind (icluding dolphins, watch movie The Cove). The problem with Japanese is that they don't solve problems among themselves ;(
@MehdiGlz We can most likely hear it but not interpret it. Because we are unable to actually use sonar, the clicks probably just sound like clicks, not echoing signals.
@fernandogt90 Why? They're not carnivorous, they don't bite. If you're floating alone in the ocean and a blue whale finds you it would simply ignore you.
I was paying attention, I was intrigued. And by useless, I meant that i was not likely to make use of it at any other time, other than bamboozle others with my knowledge of whales. Peace. =]
My favorite water animal the blue whale! Blue whales are my favorite water animal because they are the largest mammals in all of history, and their communications are louder than airplane engine sounds, I feel bad for these innocent beautiful animals because they’re being hunted to their deaths, and they die by hitting vessels. 💙🩵🐋🌊.
the blue whales throat gets extremely narrow before its digestive system, so narrow that a human cannot fit through. therefore, being swallowed would not be possible.
@enteradj If you are pure vegetarian, i respect your comment...!! but if you eat chicken, pork, beef, fish then i dont think you are in any position to comment about what others eat.... because EVERY creature is magnificent in this world in their own way and have right to live as much as others....
Come on. A blue whale can't eat you (doesn't even have teeth, only beards). They're gentle giants. Won't even attack you, probably won't even see you, being so small. A Great White shark is, of course, totally different. But a White shark is not bigger than a bus... is just the exact size of a medium sized bus (hehehe)
@kernelkertz Sea monsters? u don't know what you're talking about. These are magnificent mamals. People should protect them instead of kill them. People who love their beach fun over endangered species are selfish and heartless if you ask me. Keep in mind, these animals were on our planet long before any of us were on it.
but we are small animals to them lol they dont intend to eat us but if we get close enough we could be sucked into their mouths and its bye bye for us lol
Socialized medicine is a wonderful thing. Every Canadian is born with a cupon for free heart surgery. I made a relevant comment about how shity it would be to reaserch whale noises right before i replied to another posters comment about McDonalds. On another note I am probably in better shape than you. I don't need heart surgery but if i did I would not have to pay for it.

Damn it, my mom can never go swimming without being filmed by these people :(
That rhythmic call is haunting! nice!
The main reason hunting Blue Whales would be a problem is (1) They are quite rare, and (2) They are bigger then most fishing boats.
Blue Whales purr. Fancy that.
These creatures are sooo great. Everything do just amazes me. :-)
What footage of a blue whale in National Geographic documentary can you said it
😅@@nicoburbano6538
blue whales are cute and they rock!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Great shots from the crittercam.
Yes Whales are fascinating! =)
Yes

Incredible!
how does the camera sticks to the whale? :| with a hook or something? i liked the drum sound!
yes that's true..
it's ok for me seeing them just in videos ^^
Ok..I'm getting freaked out just watching this..wow! That is one big fish! I sooo would not be out in that water. o.O

What's so useless about knowing that a whale's schlang can be up to 3 m long? That sounds like one of the most important facts of all time.
nice
wow awsome! :DD

I love whales!!!
10 / 10 for NG
Kind of, actually..
I wonder if they were in Monterey Bay, California?
We certainly get our fair share of whales passing through.
A large portion of the California blue whale population actually feed in Monterey bay
0:32 if i hear this while swiming im more likely to think Jaws is around then a blue whale...
I got a cupon yesterday and today i used it and got a Big Mac + Small Fries for $2 Canadian :)
I love whales! It that is interreasting! (sorry if i spelled it wrong)

As you could have heard, the "suction cap is on!"
How’s it hanging, dude from 11 years ago

@enteradj its called the circle of life. live with it.
ok but id say we'd still drown in the time it would take us to free ourselves from his mouth lol
@enteradj The Japanese people eats salmon, tuna, squid, octopus, shrimp...
I never heard about the japanese people eating a blue whale...
the whale wouldnt have felt the stab anyway, they have a very thick coat of blubber
i would like to c more of that camera when they stick it to the whales back. i wonder what they do in the deep of the ocean
He has an aquarium for them
didn't you ever see finding nemo?

That's so funny. The biggest animal on earth eats the smallest!
That's because we humans are not precisely peaceful animals.
Hmm good forever
@beautifultulio - you need to check "whaling in japan" wikipedia page sir/madam
FIRST! how many blue whales are there in the world.(about?)
@kernelkertz I'm assuming you're kidding, right?
the blue whales throat gets extremely narrow before its digestive system, so narrow that a human cannot fit through. therefore, being swallowed would not be possible.
are they endangered?
Yup..your right. hehe :D
Its a creepy A call
How could you be so rude? Did I say something wrong? This is just my opinion!
But knowing our Canadian Health care system you would have to wait for it. (canadian inside joke) lol
I was about to french kiss a blue whale but they have the WORST breath in the whole animal kingdom.
even mcdonalds? i find big macs taste extremly good?
it must be awesome to have this job.....I am going to pursue this career

So... did we just leave the camera on it? O.o
krill and other small animals that drift with the currents mostly
how fucking bad of a job would it be to have to give a shit about the sound whales make.
@enteradj Ount... I'm so sorry,excuse my ignorance.
