Pepper's Background

(WDCS NA/ WDCS UK Adopt A Whale)

Pepper was named just seconds after Salt was given her name.  Salt and Pepper were seen together during the first days of whale watching on the East Coast in 1976.  Salt was named for the white marks on her dorsal fin and Pepper was named for her all black dorsal fin.

 

Pepper is a co-star on  Salt & Friends, (60 minutes) a Telly Award winner and said to be the best nature program in the world. Salt & Friends opens with the story of how Salt was named and introduces Pepper, many members of Pepper's family as well as thirteen other popular and often sighted humpback whales.
