Whales

BBC channels reported on a study showing that melting ice caps off the coast of east Greenland have opened up new feeding grounds for large whales. Scientists combined aerial surveys, satellite tagging, and observations from local Inuit communities to find that fin whales, humpbacks, and minke whales now arrive in thousands during the summer to feed on fish that have also moved into the warmer, ice-free waters. The researchers described this as a major climate-driven shift, with some species adapting while ice-dependent Arctic species are squeezed out. The coverage noted concern that walruses, narwhals, and belugas may struggle to survive in a warming Arctic, and referenced earlier documentary evidence of polar bears being pushed closer to human communities by climate change.
