JACKSONVILLE, Fla. – A right whale named Giza and her calf were spotted off the Northeast Florida coast, making it the 16th right whale spotting of the season.
The discovery was made Thursday and the photo was taken by the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission. It’s significant because it’s the highest number of calves spotted in the past five years. Giza is 21 years old and it’s her third calf.
With warmer weather and spring break just around the corner, boaters need to be cautious.
