[post_page_title]A rare sight[/post_page_title]
Humpback whales were once considered an endangered species, although their numbers have started to increase since they became protected in 1996. While their numbers are on the rise, it is estimated that there are only around 30,000 to 40,000 in existence today. That is about 30-35% of their population in 1940. So, seeing a humpback whale is not generally something that happens every day. Especially as very few of this number can actually be found in the North Pacific, which is where Eric Smith spotted this mom and her calf.
