This audio captures the underwater symphony of humpback whales, recorded in March 2021 in the Hawaiian Islands Humpback Whale National Marine Sanctuary by tmo.basin and the Pacific Whale Foundation.
Humpback whales are known for their complex and melodic vocalizations, often referred to as 'songs'. These sequences of moans, howls, and cries are primarily produced by males during the breeding season. Though their full purpose is still studied, these songs are believed to play roles in mating and navigation.
Hydrophones, or underwater microphones, are used to capture these sounds. These devices are sensitive enough to pick up nuanced layers of sound, and the recordings are analyzed with acoustic software to identify patterns and changes over time.
This audio collectible supports the humpback-whale.basin, a trust dedicated to protecting humpback whales and their ecosystems, as well as the pacific-whale-foundation.basin, which focuses on marine conservation and research.
Owning this collectible provides a unique auditory experience of whale communication and contributes to essential conservation efforts, ensuring the protection and study of these remarkable animals and their habitat.
Each Certificate of Ensurance is a share in the BASIN Protocol which ensures Nature in perpetuity.
