Brains On! How Do Whales Communicate?

The sounds whales make underwater are super cool, and also very important for them to locate prey, navigate and communicate with each other.

We find out how they make those sounds and what scientists think they mean. We also learn how a blowhole is like a human nose. A human nose that talks.
