Having a whale of a time Oct 26 2007

Earth-Touch has served some spectacular footage of southern right whales (Eubalaena australis) off the south-eastern coast of South Africa in the past few weeks.

The whales come to these waters every year to calve, and have become so well known, South Africans now sometimes refer to the ‘Big Six’ (lion, rhino, elephant, leopard, buffalo and now whale) as must-see animals.
