Humpback Whale (Megaptera novaeangliae) - Kingdom of Tonga

A female humpback whale (Megaptera novaeangliae) swims near the surface with her newborn calf in the Kingdom of Tonga. Humpback Whales are paternal and the young calf will stay with his mother for about 12 months before moving off on its own. The small circular markings on the flukes are the bite marks from cookie cutter sharks
