in a recent study on marine biology, we explored the concept that whales, in their immense and mysterious underwater world, use a form of communication that could almost be whispered among humans. it's a precursory form of contact that refurbishes our understanding of these majestic creatures. instead of disowning their traditional loud calls for mating or territory, they incorporate these almost inaudible sounds for more intimate or subtle feedbacks within their pods. this discovery opens new avenues in understanding how these gentle giants interact and bond in the vastness of the oceans.
