Summary
[edit].jpg&action=edit§ion=1){kind=link}
| Description |
Sperm whales (Physeter macrocephalus) have wrinkly skin and a large rather square head that makes up around one third of their body length. Females are smaller than males and have a proportionately smaller head. They are purplish-brown or dark grey in colour, with white underneath. The dorsal fin has been reduced to a low hump and there is only one, slit-like blowhole, situated on the top left side of the snout. Their angled, bushy blows make them easy to spot even though they rarely show much more above the surface. |
