A distinctive pigmentation pattern is observed in southern right whales, where the calves are initially born with mostly white skin. Over time, as they grow and develop, their colouration gradually darkens, eventually transforming into a mottled grey or light brown hue. This change occurs progressively with age, reflecting their unique biological development.
