"It’s long been known that humpback whales use complex vocalizations to
communicate with one another, but did you know just how far their songs
could travel? A group of scientists spent years studying the evolution
of male humpback whale songs off the coasts of Gabon and Madagascar. And
the results of what they discovered about these populations separated by
nearly 3,000 miles is quite surprising."

Via Muse, who wrote: "They include recordings of whale songs in this
article!!!!!!!  ZOMG!"
