Marine Biologist Christy Hudak collects plankton in an area where Right Whales feed, during a research cruise with the Center for Coastal Studies in Cape Cod Bay, Massachusetts, on April 1, 2024. NOAA permit 25740-02. Right Whales come to the bay in late winter and early spring, to forage for plankton. They are considered an endangered species according to the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA). There are approximately 350 individuals left according to the Center for Coastal Studies. "Since two years ago, we've had a lot of change where we've had an influx of Right Whales coming into the bay, but there's also been some that haven't been coming in. And then, we also have a change in the food resource where from year to year, we're getting a difference species of plankton," according to Hudak.
