  abstract = {{D}espite dedicated research has been carried out to adequately map the distribution of the sperm whale in the {M}editerranean {S}ea, unlike other regions of the world, the species population status is still presently uncertain. {T}he analysis of two years of continuous acoustic data provided by the {ANTARES} neutrino telescope revealed the year-round presence of sperm whales in the {L}igurian {S}ea, probably associated with the availability of cephalopods in the region. {T}he presence of the {L}igurian {S}ea sperm whales was demonstrated through the real-time analysis of audio data streamed from a cabled-to-shore deep-sea observatory that allowed the hourly tracking of their long-range echolocation behaviour on the {I}nternet. {I}nterestingly, the same acoustic analysis indicated that the occurrence of surface shipping noise would apparently not condition the foraging behaviour of the sperm whale in the area, since shipping noise was almost always present when sperm whales were acoustically detected. {T}he continuous presence of the sperm whale in the region confirms the ecological value of the {L}igurian sea and the importance of {ANTARES} to help monitoring its ecosystems.},
