      <image:title>Adopt-a-whale - Blanca</image:title>
      <image:caption>ID number:  84/12A Name:  Blanca Gender:  Female First sighting:  1984 Blanca is one of the very few brindle females in the South African population. This means that she was born white and is turning more and more grey with age. 94% of brindles are male, so Blanca’s colouring makes her very rare.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Adopt-a-whale - Emma</image:title>
      <image:caption>Emma was first seen on the South African coast in 1983. She has a partial-grey colour with a stunning white blaze. Her beautiful markings make her visually very distinct from other southern right whales. She currently is a grandmother, and likely even a great-grandmother.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Adopt-a-whale - Fluke</image:title>
      <image:caption>Fluke was first seen with a calf in 2005 in Walker Bay. Besides the unique callosity pattern on her head, Fluke is also easy to recognize from the shape of her tail which is missing both tail points. It is unsure what caused this, but it could be related to a shark or killer whale attack. Fortunately, her missing tail points don’t affect her mobility or chances of survival.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Adopt-a-whale - Ghost</image:title>
      <image:caption>Ghost is the only male in our adoption program. He has a distinctive ghost-like white blaze on his back which is how he got his name.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Adopt-a-whale - Granny</image:title>
      <image:caption>Granny is our most senior whale – seen for the first time in 1981 she is believed to be over 50 years of age. She has given birth to at least ten calves since 1981 which indicates that she’s healthy and strong.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Adopt-a-whale - Vicky</image:title>
      <image:caption>Vicky is Granny’s daughter and was first seen close after her birth in 1981, and had her first calf when she was only 6 years old. She has a very distinctive V-shaped patch on her back. This was white when she was born but turned grey as she matured.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Adopt-a-whale - Lucy</image:title>
      <image:caption>Lucy is a partial-grey female with a beautiful colour pattern on her back which was white when she was born. She was seen for the first time in 1999, and has at least eight siblings from the same mother.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Adopt-a-whale - Maggi</image:title>
      <image:caption>Maggi was the first female southern right whale to ever be identified in South African waters in 1979. Over the years, she’s had 10 calves in various bays along the South African coast.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Adopt-a-whale - Splash</image:title>

      <image:title>Adopt-a-whale - Thembe</image:title>
      <image:caption>Thembe was born in 1985 and had her own first calf in 1985, at the age of six. She has a beautiful colouration pattern which includes extra white blazes against her partial-grey colour.
