Humpback whales (Megaptera novaeanglia) cooperative feeding using a bubble net, near Angoon, Chatham Strait, Southeast Alaska, USA.

This was a typical bubble net feeding group with a permanent core of six individuals, but the size of the group would sometimes expand to about ten with the arrival of “guests”.
