Abstract

[Extract] Pygmy blue whales (Balaenoptera musculus brevicauda) are known to conduct annual migrations between the southern and western waters of Australia to the Banda Sea via the Savu Sea in Indonesia (Double et al., 2014; Möller et al., 2020). However, the journey back to Australian waters is rarely documented, often due to limited battery life of satellite tags deployed in Australian waters or inadequate funding to conduct satellite tracking studies originating in the Indonesian waters.
