Marine currents, prey availability, and other sometimes mysterious parameters are all contributing factors to the movements of marine mammals. Upstream, downstream, toward the Estuary or out to sea. One might think that their movements are linear, in other words that whales enter the Gulf through the Cabot Strait, come to feed off the Gasp\u00e9 Peninsula and Sept-\u00celes and then slowly make their way toward the Estuary, only to later embark on a migration in the opposite direction&#8230; but the reality is quite different!<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Return of Tic Tac Toe<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>\u201cThere are wanderers, and then there are highly site-specific individuals,\u201d explains Christian Ramp, a researcher for Fisheries and Oceans Canada. For example, certain humpback whales are seen every year in the Gulf, but never venture into the Estuary, and vice versa. Others go back and forth and crisscross the entire St. Lawrence during the course of the summer.\u201d This appears to be the case with Tic Tac Toe. After arriving near Tadoussac in June, this favourite whale of cruise-goers was then sighted again near Baie-Comeau in July. Since yesterday, the matriarch has returned to the waters of the <strong>Saguenay-St. Lawrence Marine Park,<\/strong> where she has been rubbing fins with nearly a dozen other humpbacks, including Gaspar, H918, H887, H859, H909 (a.k.a. \u201cSeventeen\u201d) and H943. \u201cThe Estuary is a relatively small feeding ground for our giants,\u201d explains one seasoned observer.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Season after season, tide after tide, the St. Lawrence River is like a beating heart.
