WHALES
Continued from Page 1
Overall, between 200 and -too whales live along
the Oregon Coast, said Bruce Mate, a professor of
fisheries and wildlife at Or»*gon State University
From December to mid-January. nearly 21,000
whales migrate south from their summer feeding
grounds in the Bering Sen near Alaska to their
winter breeding grounds oil the Baja toast near
California
The peak of this migration occur* during the
first week of January, when nearly 30 whales pass
every hour
Beginning in Mart h and continuing through
May. the whales migrate again, this time traveling
north in two groups
The first group, animals without calves, mi
grates primarily in March The second group,
which includes mothers and calves, migrates in
April and May
The mothers, which }>ear single one-ton calves
every other vear, give birth to and nurse their
young in three calving lagoons along the western
i oast of the Baja Peninsula, Mate said
Alter the calf is horn, it consumes 20 gallons of
fat-rich whale milk daily. Mate said, and contin
ues to nurse until strong enough to migrate north
with its mother
"In a two year period.” Mate said, "a mother is
either pregnant or nursing for three-quarters of
the time "
Whale watching is esper tally popular among
tourists, iiobbs said "Most of the (teople who
take the tours have never seen whales Itefore, he
said
Lisa UiC.uardin, from Salem, was no exception
"I've always wanted to do it." LaGuardia said.
I'm originally from Pennsylvania, so there's not
a lot of w hales there "
Other first-time whale watchers included six
year-old (tody and eight-year-old Vincent Kroger,
who were with their grandfather. Denny Kreger
Sr They drove from Ridgefield, Wash.. Saturday
morning
Cody, who was on the ixean for the tirst time,
said he believed the whales would lx- blue'' and

said Kreger. whose family deep sea fishes and
scuba dives, "but if they can handle this, then
they can go on short <x t-an trips "
"How deep is it. Grandpa?” Vincent asked,
hanging onto the railing and looking at the grt*en
water and kelp strands that washed around the
sides of the lx>at
"Well, we're at tr> fathoms, and there's six feet
to a fathom, so about 200 feet," Kreger said. "It'd
take a lot of bourbon to mix it half and half "
For the novice whole wall hers, Hobbs said the
first sign of a whale would be exhaled whale
‘Last year, we had them come
out of the water, right up to
the boat. People were actually
petting them,’

owner of Depoe Bay S(.>ort Fishing
breath. like puffs of vapor 12 to 15 feet alxive the
water's surfn* e.
' If you're downwind of one of those,'' Kroger
said, '"it's a real rotten stench, kind of like bad
breath
Mate said this smell is a sign the whale fed re
cently, and when the whales reach the southern
breeding grounds, their exhalations have almost
no odor.
''I've actually found whales in the fog by smell
ing their breath and heading upwind." Mate said
(day whales are the most common whale spe
cies seen along the Oregon Coast, making up ‘>0
percent of all sightings from shore. But 26 differ
ent species, including sperm whales, blue whales,
humpback whales and killer whales are seen,
Mate said.
Whale watchers might also see porpoises or
sunfish. which Hobbs described as a "big. round
fish with a fin up on the lop."
Hobbs said he had seen more whales in the past
few years than before.
"When they were on the endangered species
list,” Hobbs sniil, "there was a rule that we had to
stay at least 300 feet from the whale, but nobody
told the whale it had to stay 300 feet from us.
"List year, we had them come out of the water,
right up to the boat. People were actually petting
them,” he said
"At the turn of the century," Mate said, "there
wore only about 4.000 gray whales in the wild be
cause of whaling. Today, they're as abundant as
they were before they were ever hunted."
The gray whale's comebai k and subsequent re
moval from the list of endangered species is a
sui i ess story sometimes not experienced by other
whales. Mate said.
The north Atlantic right whale, called that be
cause it was the "right" whale to hunt, numbers
only 350 in the north Atlantii and too in the
north Pat ific. Mate said.
But whales or other wildlife of any sort were
scan e during the trip
"1 wanted to show you something living out
here," Hobbs told the passengers after a high eas
tcrlv wind prevented him from steering the boot
into Whale Cove south of Depoe Bay to look at
the fur seal colony seeking shelter on the rtx ks.
"Well, doggone it." Hobbs said as the kadaho
headed hack to shore without a single whale
sighting, "no whales."
