      This is the newest species of whale in the world, and it is already threatened with extinction. Rice's whales are among the rarest marine mammals in the world, with only about 50 individuals surviving off the coast of Florida. How could scientists have missed them — and how can we save them now? It is not often that scientists discover a new species of mammal, let alone one that reaches 12 meters in length, weighs up to 30 tons, and often inhabits the shores of densely populated areas.

      But that is exactly what happened in 2021 when scientists announced a new species: the Rice's whale, which was previously considered a subspecies of the Bryde's whale.

      … However, the exciting news was accompanied by a much sadder announcement: filter-feeding whales, often referred to as Gulf of Mexico whales due to their homeland just south of the Florida coast, are critically endangered. According to the most accurate estimates from researchers, only 51 whales remain, making them one of the rarest marine mammals in the world.

      Since their primary habitat is located right in the middle of a busy shipping corridor, Rice's whales live under constant threat from ship strikes, military exercises, oil and gas exploration, and environmental pollution. The oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico in 2010 contaminated nearly half of the whales' habitat, killed about 17 percent of the remaining population, sickened another 18 percent, and left nearly a quarter of females with reproductive problems.

      Over time, scientists collaborating with the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) have initiated a series of research projects to study this species in more detail. (Learn why the world of whales is filled with sounds.)

      For example, in a recent study published in January, the characteristic vocalizations of the rare whales were used to track their movements, and it was found that the whales travel beyond their primary range, all the way to the Texas coast.

      "It was interesting to learn that they are still regularly encountered in the northwestern part of the Gulf of Mexico," says study leader Melissa Soldevilla, a NOAA fisheries biologist. "Historical records indicate that they were once more widespread throughout the Gulf, but since the 1990s, no whales have been seen outside their primary habitat."

      Africa is now widely recognized as the birthplace of the Hominidae, the taxonomic family to which modern humans belong. Archaeological evidence indicates that the continent has been inhabited by humans and their ancestors for more than 4,000,000 years. Anatomically modern humans are believed to have appeared around 200,000 years ago in the eastern region of sub-Saharan Africa. Later, these early humans spread to North Africa and the Middle East and eventually to the rest of the world.
