Twenty-three days ago a mysterious gray whale was spotted off the coast of Israel, and it has now been spotted again this time near Spain by fishermen who were happy to confirm its existence. The whale, once thought an elusive or mythical cryptid, has been confirmed to exist as it is spotted almost 2,000 miles from where it was first seen last month. Due to changing ecosystems, whaling, and other factors both natural and man-made grey whale populations have significantly decreased and those species inhabiting the Pacific Ocean became extinct over two hundred years ago. Now the sighting of this mystery whale raises a serious mystery about where it could have come from, what it is, and where it could be going. Since the 19th century not a single grey whale has been spotted in the Atlantic Ocean. Either there is a population existing in secret in the area that has somehow completely avoided human contact, or this whale has managed to travel undetected for a distance that obliterates all previous known whale migration records. The sighting, made by SUBMON, suggests this creature could be indeed the same whale that was seen near Israel previously. If it is a different one, however, it suggests a population that has defied all odds and made a comeback seemingly out of nowhere, but that may still be in great

These whales have not been seen since the 19th century, and it makes me wonder why they would be seen now.
Has the Oil spill Disrupted its habitat and that is the reason for it showing now,Please let me know what you all think.

I agree with the other people who feel sorry for the whales. Once they are extinct, their songs will forever go unsung and unheard ever after.
