The sexual encounter, which occurred in waters west of the Hawaiian island of Maui in January 2022, was detailed in a new report.

having sex, in what experts say is the first time the species has been documented exhibiting sexual activity of any kind.The report’s three authors are marine biologist Stephanie Stack and the two photographers who captured the encounter, Lyle Krannichfeld and Brandi Romano, in waters west of the Hawaiian island of Maui in January 2022.

After circling the boat and attempting to swim away from the healthier whale, the emaciated whale eventually succumbed, the report said. The healthier whale then held the other whale in place with its pectoral fins and began to penetrate the other whale. “The whales are a big part of our lives here in Maui,” he said. “Everybody that’s involved with them and who photographs them kind of realizes that that’s never been captured. Mating and birth are the two main things that are still kind of unknown.”
