Following severe decline due to commercial whaling (Tannessen and Johnsen, 1982), humpback whale Megaptera novaeangliae (Borowski 1781) populations in the North Atlantic region have been undergoing steady recovery during the latter part of the twentieth century (Katona and Beard, 1990; Weir et al.

These types of mark-recapture studies have broad application and have been used to estimate abundances of blue whales (Balaenoptera musculus) and humpback whales (Megaptera novaeangliae) (Calambokidis and Barlow, 2004), grizzly bears (Ursus arctos) (Mowat and Strobeck, 2000), herbivorous insects (Kareiva, 1983), and numerous other species so that marked individuals in the population can be detected during later sampling periods.

Fin (Balaenoptera physalus) and humpback (Megaptera novaeangliae) whales are among the most abundant baleen whales in Scotia Sea (Orgeira et al., 2015) and have been widely recorded in different Antarctic and sub-Antarctic areas (Joiris, 1991; De la Mare, 1997; Orgeira, 2004; Rossi-Santos et al., 2007; Nowacek et al., 2011; Joiris and Dochy, 2013).
