Migaloo the White Whale Encounter

A one in a million chance encounter with Migaloo the white Humpback Whale as he leaves the Great Barrier Reef, migrating back to Antarctica after spending the worst of the southern hemisphere winter off Port Douglas. Migaloo is frequently seen, in season, by Wavelength: www.wavelength.com.au

A legendary Pokemon

[@DVNTempest7482]

*A albino Kyogre appeared!*

[@leahjanulgue7200]

No no it's an ancient Pokémon gotta get my Pokémon go here to catch that whale

[@gittuska77]

Im going to compliment to the fine people on the boat. Thank you for behaving like a normal and smart human being. Thank you for giving this beautiful creature the space and time it so deserves.

[@joel0256]

No sé le acercaron por miedo seguro.

[@nigelbulls23]

A very rare whale. Its nice to see such a beautiful mammal. Governments around the world need to protect whales.

[@kroakie4]

It's a shame they don't. No one country should be able to lay claim to any of the oceans. They, and their inhabitants, belong to the world. We should do good by them. What did whales ever do to us, other than provide years of fascination and entertainment. Most countries and cultures are past NEEDING whale meat or oil. It's not acceptable to mercilessly kill these creatures under the phony guise of "scientific research". It doesn't take a rocket scientist to figure out Japan's motives for it. They don't have good in their heart towards whales.

[@kenmendoza6932]

nigelbulls23 . You mean animals in general, right?

[@Saucemeister07]

Whaling is punishable by life

[@catsubiston]

isn't migaloo already protected by the government?

[@deletemeplz400]

Kill it

[@garagexkast]

It's a shiny! THROW A MASTERBALL!!

[@newgrim2323]

omg lmao

[@ligmadestroyer]

Shiny whalord

[@wheniwasfuckingmydogmycatc6322]

YEEEEeeeeEEEEEee

[@scrubjay93]

So glad you could share it with everyone. That must have been a heart-stopping moment!

[@KatherineUribe-1]

Migaloo is awesome! Truly...he inspires awe. I thought white whales were just in books, but it seems they are real. That must have been amazing, to be so close to such a legendary animal. He's breathtaking! Thanks for sharing him with us!

[@bkjeong4302]

There's also a white blue whale in the Eastern Pacific and several white sperm whales (which was what Moby was) worldwide.

[@juandom6432]

You lucky bastards!

[@juandom6432]

***** Jk, seriously it gave me chills. Such a beautiful creature. Congratulation guys! :D

[@MrJ3gather]

No words can describe. Thank you so much for sharing. Absolutely breathtaking.

[@MacavitysSweetheart]

He is so beautiful. I think being able to be that close to him would have brought tears to my eyes.

[@Al-kb2xl]

For anyone wondering migaloo is still alive and spotted recently ❤❤❤ makes me so happy

[@wendywelch6917]

✝️✝️✝️✝️🐳🐋☪️✝️☯️☮ℹ🅰️Ⓜ️🅰️ℹ🆒️🦋🐢🌜🌛😇☪️ I HAVE ALWAYS BEEN A WHALE ADMIRER 🐋 AND I ❤ THE FACT THAT THEY ARE SO AWARE OF THEIR SURROUNDINGS THAT THEY KNOW IF THEY ARE ENCOUNTERING SAFE OR OTHERWISE THE GREAT LEVIATHANS OF THE DEEP AND I WILL BE PRAYING FOR MIGLOO TO BE SAFE

[@kroakie4]

I hope the whalers never get the chance to capture this gorgeous whale! Or any other, for that matter. I hope Migaloo lives a long, happy life and has babies that will carry his genes. :)

[@kroakie4]

Oh I'm so happy to hear that!!

[@rickenman9844]

caveman Versace because every single one of the millions of Japanese people out there are vicious whale killers, get real you racist smartass

[@kenmendoza6932]

kroakie4 . Wtf is a whaler

[@Dorankuu]

Sadly albinism is a disorder but there are chances, just rare

[@donnakawana]

@@rickenman9844 Rick luv do some investigating on whose boats are out still killing whales in ships labeled research when they just sell them for parts to Ancient medical stores.(or whatever their called) but the Japanese do still eat an use them as does some parts of China. So investigate why do u think Greenpeace is still a thing??? Cuz assholes still illegally murder whales.

[@OlliMSa]

WOW! you are soooo lucky. As you said "one in a million." What a gift!

[@Sabahes_ASMR]

I would have been so happy that he or she graced me with its pressence. It was obviously as curious about your boat as we all are of it. He came by an said "Hi!" He was gentle to, he could have easily knocked the boat over with a wave, but he came up took a look an went back under without so much as a wave.

[@GandalfTheTsaagan]

What a beautiful fellow is Migaloo! And how lucky of you!

[@PuaArriola]

I felt excited just with the video! amazing!!!!

“There she blows!-there she blows! A hump like a snow-hill! It is Moby Dick!” ― Herman Melville, Moby Dick

[@martinauroraeikaiwa]

+Chris Jones Hey, thanks for the comment. Yes, I am aware that Moby Dick was a sperm whale and that the one in this video is a humpback whale. I was just quoting the famous novel to point out what the two whales have in common: being white. And that this humpback whale looked a lot like the description in the quoted passage: "like a snow hill."

[@MissMolly3377]
