Humpback Whales Decline Linked to Marine Heatwave

A recent study has found that a marine heatwave that occurred about a decade ago in the northeastern Pacific Ocean caused a significant decline in the population of Hawaiian humpback whales. These whales rely on small fish and krill for food, which were also affected by the heatwave. This research highlights the impact of climate change on marine life and the importance of protecting our oceans.
