Most whales hear and communicate at a frequency of around 15-25 Hz (20 Hz being the lowest frequency the average human can hear). Identified over 20 years ago, one unusual whale on the planet calls at a frequency of 52 Hz and is not
likely understood by other whales it encounters. It has been dubbed the loneliest whale on earth. CLICK HERE for further reading. An audio clip of the mysterious call can be found HERE (recorded signal has been sped up 10 times).
