The oceans contain a large number of creatures, some of which are very difficult for humans to see and it may even be several years before they can be seen since their last sighting. In addition, they can surprise people and appear at a time when they are not being sought.
This is exactly what happened to a group of students and researchers who were conducting a study, which is very recurrent, on dolphins around the coastal zone of North Carolina, as confirmed by the university’s own workers.

However, to everyone’s surprise, on April 19 they observed a marine species that had not been seen for a long time. It was a humpback whale. According to Brunswick Community College officials in a statement on May 1, the excursion became a “once-in-a-lifetime experience.”
In addition, Dean Kim Jones confirmed what the surprising moment was like when they were able to visualize the humpback whale: “There was so much life in the area: bait fish, diving birds, dozens of dolphins and then we saw it.”

The last time a humpback whale was seen off the coast was in 2021
Not only that, but the dean revealed when was the last time a whale of this species had been sighted in the area. A very distant date, no less than 4 years ago, a fact that happened in 2021.
He also commented on one of the reasons why this species might be found in this place to McClatchy News: “There’s a lot of debris right now on the coast… So it’s great (…) A healthy, beautiful whale feeding is fantastic.“
But it was not the only time it was seen, as the dean’s son and son-in-law were able to observe it again on May 1. And of course, they did not hesitate to capture that moment with their mobile phones

Former Cowboys Pro Bowler getting tryout with Raiders during rookie minicamp, per report

Jaylon Smith, a former Dallas Cowboys second-round pick who hasn't played in a regular season game since 2023, is participating in the Raiders' minicamp on a tryout basis.
