Whale Flukes

Flukes are used to ID whales because they are unique to each whale just like a fingerprint is unique to each human. Scientists need this data because it helps to find the whales' migration patterns. The most difficult part of the lab was finding the exact whale fluke that matches when almost all of them look exactly the same. The best way to make this lab better is to add more things to do like come up with a story about each whale fluke you identify.
