"Unlocking the Language of the Deep: Scientists' Groundbreaking Conversation with a Humpback Whale"

TL;DR Summary
In a groundbreaking achievement, marine biologists engaged in what is believed to be a conversation with a humpback whale named Twain in Southeast Alaska. Using recordings of humpback calls, the researchers interacted with Twain, who responded both physically and acoustically, displaying phases of engagement, agitation, and disengagement. Acoustic analysis of the whale's calls suggested varying levels of excitement and arousal. This unprecedented exchange opens new possibilities for understanding and cooperation between humans and whales.
