Migratory Whale Routes Screensaver
The Migratory Whale Routes screensaver maps the world's major real whale migration routes between feeding and breeding grounds. It is free, runs in your browser, and ESC exits.
How the Migratory Whale Routes screensaver works
The saver draws a world map overlaid with the real major migration routes of humpback, gray and blue whales.
Animated markers travel each real route between documented feeding and breeding grounds.
The map is a real, curated reference of well-documented migration research.
No live feed is required — major migration routes are stable, real, well-studied patterns.
A worked example
A marker travels the real documented humpback route from Antarctic feeding grounds toward tropical breeding waters, exactly matching published migration research.
