Whale & Dolphin Migration

— Wildlife Migration —

Whales and dolphins, known collectively as cetaceans, visit New Jersey's coastal waters and the Delaware Estuary during the warmer months. Their migratory movements may be a reflection of the changing locations of their prey: fish, crustaceans, mollusks, krill, and plankton.

Cetaceans are a good indicator of water quality. In 1987, a significant number of dolphins died, most likely due to pollution-related bacteria. Keeping our oceans free of pollutants and litter helps maintain the health and safety of the cetaceans.
