PORT DOUGLAS, QUEENSLAND, AUSTRALIA -- While it's summer in Hawaii, it's winter in the southern hemisphere. Winter is an important time of year -- it's mating and calving season for humpback whales, which is why Pacific Whale Foundation researchers are studying whales in multiple southern hemisphere locations at this time.
Three Pacific Whale Foundation researchers traveled from Hawaii to Port Douglas, Australia in early August to launch Pacific Whale Foundation's 27th year of humpback whale research in Australia.
