Watch Fellowship Of The Humpback Whales

In Hawaii, where new land is born as volcanic rock, another birth takes place. A baby humpback enters the world and joins 3,000 or more whales that congregate here each winter to mate and give birth in protected bays and coves. Over twelve months she will learn many skills from her mother, and the two of them will make a several-thousand-mile journey together to Alaska's southeast coast and back. In the krill-rich waters of their summer feeding grounds, the behavior of the whales changes. Though fiercely competitive during the breeding season in Hawaii, the whales cooperate in Alaska, working in teams to gather food in the most efficient way possible. Academy Award-winner F. Murray Abraham narrates.
