A male humpback whale's courtship strategy can be pretty aggressive, even sometimes resulting in a fight to the death for a potential partner. So this little one has to be under a mother's watchful eye to stay safe.

Spy in the Ocean is available on iPlayer in the UK and will be available on PBS in the US in the autumn.
