Reply #13: The western Pacific gray whales number only in the hundreds? [View All]

[BrotherBuzz]

First of all, I never knew there were two sub-species; western Pacific gray whale, and eastern Pacific. gray whales. I thought I was viewing the California gray whale, and I have to believe there are more than just a few hundred because I can count twenty-thirty whales in only a few hours during the peek of two month migration past the California coast. Numbers seem odd. Are the Asian whales migrating down the California coast, too?
