40,000 humpback whales have begun their annual migration along Australia's east coast, traveling between Antarctica and warmer Australian waters for breeding. Whale expert Vanessa Pirotta confirms that Migaloo, a rare white albino humpback whale, is likely still alive despite not being sighted since 2020. The whale migration season contributes $5.6 billion to Queensland's economy and attracts over 127,000 domestic visitors.
