52-Hertz whale

Speaker icon52-Hertz whale

  • ... that the 52-Hertz whale is known only by its unique sound (listen), the only one of its kind ever recorded, and has been called the loneliest whale in the world?
  • Comment: The stub was created by Eremine on 17 September and expanded ~12x by me on 22 Sept. This is my second nomination, so I am excusing myself from the quid pro quo review requirement until I get a couple more nominations under my belt. Also, is it possible to to include an audio recording in lieu of a picture? Thanks. Braincricket (talk) 04:01, 23 September 2012 (UTC)

  • Hi Braincricket. Welcome back. Please see J8 Sounds for adding audio instead of the picture. Maile66 (talk) 01:20, 24 September 2012 (UTC)
  • Good to see you again. I just inserted an audio clip. I've been trying to think of what to write instead of "pictured". The best I could come up with was "heard". Braincricket (talk) 02:10, 24 September 2012 (UTC)
  • And it works. I could hear it. I don't find anything that says what you're supposed to list besides (pictured), but I'm sure someone will figure it out by the time it's on the front page. Cool stuff. Maile66 (talk) 02:26, 24 September 2012 (UTC)
