Southern right whales may live far longer than previously believed—up to 130 years, double earlier estimates. Two researchers share their fascinating findings:
Whales can live way longer than scientists had thought, with potential lifespans as much as double previous estimates
These marine mammals are still feeling the effects of whaling. For most species, it may be another 100 years before there are enough old whales for scientists to confirm their lifespans.
