Bach

First observed in 1989, Bach was completely white meaning this individual was at least 12 to 16 years old at the time.

We’ve only seen Bach three times, so we can’t determine this individual’s sex or summer range. In adulthood, males and females are highly segregated; females live in communities with the young, and males are often found in unisex aggregations.

Two networks of males frequent the head of the Laurentian Channel and the Saguenay Fjord. Another network of males, the “Downstream boys”, also use the head of the channel and the downstream portion of the estuary. Although their territories overlap, individuals from one network have very little contact with males from other networks. Within these networks, there are bands, i.e. small groups of males regularly seen together.
