The identity of the whale is up for debate. Many who first spotted the whale claimed it was Migaloo, an all white humpback whale first spotted way back in 199. One scientist however told the Australian Associated Press that the whale was too small and white to be Migaloo.

Thus this whale has been nicknamed Migaloo Jr.
