Who they are
We personalize the whales by defining them by name, group membership, and family lineage. Each individual whale is represented through images, detailed illustrations, and video footage. For some of the more familiar individuals, we offer descriptions of their personality traits.
What They Do
We portray the behaviors that make sperm whales special. It’s one thing to read about what they do, and another thing entirely to watch them in action. A combination of informative narrative and visually stunning videography brings the behavior of the whales to life.
How & Where
We share how we conduct our study, what we have learned, and offer insights and impressions that have surfaced over the course of our multi-year study. Our annual reports detail our findings and an illustrated fact sheet describes the physical capabilities of sperm whales.
