We aren't on the same level, But she keeps trying

She is known as the loneliest whale in the world, having been discovered in 1992 and monitored ever since. Scientists have noticed that she is unlike other whales: she has no family, does not belong to a pod and has never had a partner. She roams the ocean alone, calling for company, but no one answers. She was born different, with a unique voice. While other whales communicate at 12-25 Hz, she sings at a much higher frequency, 52 Hz, which prevents other whales from hearing her. Her call is ignored, and her attempts to communicate go unanswered...
But she keeps trying.

So, no one has tried to replicate whale noises at the proper frequency in order to call other whales to this lonely whale's location?

Also... ahem.... postwhalehelena.

Maybe she's telling the rest of them to fuck off.

Such poetic tragedy.
