Scientists just tracked the journey of two humpback whales. They swam from Australia to Brazil. They crossed more than 14,000 kilometers of open ocean.

One of the whales broke the record for the longest migration ever recorded. Normally, these whales stay in the same areas to reproduce. But these two decided to explore.

Scientists believe that changes in the ocean could be pushing whales toward new waters. This discovery helps us better understand how these incredible animals live.
