Calvin the right whale

Today I read a story about right whales.

In 1992 a right whale was hit and killed by a passing ship now the government has a law about if your in an area where right whales are you have to slow down.

Researchers have tagged a baby right whale and named it Calvin. They have tracked the right whale and seen where it goes and what it's adventures are. One time Calvin got stuck in a net and was lucky to get out... most right whales die from caring around a fishing net.

The funny thing about it is that they found out that Calvin was a girl but chose to keep the name because it fit the right whale.
