During winter humpback whales converge on tropical breeding grounds characterized by shallow, warm seas. In the eastern half of the North Pacific two such breeding grounds are located along the shorelines and shallows of Mexico, and in mid-ocean around Hawaii, separated by 4,500-6,000 km of deep oce...
