Gentoo (Pygoscelis papua) Found: Antarctica, America, South Africa, New Zealand, western Australia Length: Max 18m Weight: Max 48tonnes Food: Crustaceans in plankton, including krill Breeding: Normally breed every two years, a single calf is born after a 12 month gestation period Notes: Humbacks have the longest and most varied song of all the whale species. They also have very long flippers, in some cases reaching 1/3 the length of their body. An ingenious method of "mass" feeding involves a group of humpbacks swimming in an upward spiral whilst creating a "bubble curtain" which en traps the krill making for easy feeding. Top
