On pelagic tl rips I often hear of sighted humpbacks being given a name or number by the crew, based on their tail (and other?) markings.  Does anyone have a notion of what information they are tapping and whether that is available to the public?  This is for an illustrator friend in Europe who is doing some work on humpback whales.

Thanks much in advance,

BAB
