A large portion of the North Atlantic humpback population over-winters in the West Indies, concentrated in the Greater Antilles, while only small numbers visit in the Lesser Antilles. Recordings of humpback whale songs and sightings of mothers and calves confirms that humpbacks use the Lesser Antilles as a mating and calving ground. However, the feeding-ground destination of whales from the Lesser Antilles is not well documented. Results of photo-identification surveys conducted in the Lesser Antilles have yielded the first re-sighting of a humpback whale between the French West Indies and the feeding grounds off Newfoundland / St Lawrence Canada.
