The Hardest Part of the Journey
A Dangerous Migration
Moving Through an Ocean Built for Us
North Atlantic right whales migrate through some of the busiest waters on the continent, sharing their route with commercial shipping, fishing gear and heavily developed coastlines.
For a population already struggling to recover, a single entanglement or vessel strike can matter enormously. Understanding where whales travel, how they behave and where risks overlap is an important part of helping them survive the journey.
Migration • Risk • Recovery • Survival
Along the Way
A Changing Ocean From North to South
The Great Migration crosses far more than a line on a map. From the St. Lawrence to the Atlantic coast, the voyage moves through very different habitats, communities and ocean conditions.
Those changes are part of the story. What we see between research stops can be just as valuable as what we set out to find.
Changing Habitats
Estuaries, coastal waters and open Atlantic environments all shape what we encounter.
Wildlife Along the Route
Whales may lead the story, but seabirds, fish, turtles and other marine life travel through these waters too.
Ocean in Motion
Temperature, currents, weather and seasonal change continually reshape the conditions around us.
