    See, Lyviatan had upper teeth, they needed those, meanwhile extant sperm whales can even be healthy without those lower teeth because they just swallow their prey.

      How do whales get so many scars even though they're always suspended in the middle of the sea?

      • 5 months ago

        Because they hunt giant squids, which have barbed tentacles. There is no grand battle, but the squid hooks do leave their mark. You'll notice the scars are focused around the mouth - as opposed to scars on the back, which are likely caused by propellers (manatees are always covered in these).

      Isn't it really dangerous to be in the water with them nearby? I their echolocation sounds were loud enough to shatter bones.

        Yes, it is tremendously dangerous to get that up close to a sperm-whale. A single click can knock you unconscious at about 15 meters while underwater and at such close proximity it could rupture blood vessels in your body and just outright kill you. Thankfully these bros are kinda smart enough and know that or just don't do it a lot in shallower water.

    I hate humanity so much. To kill such a beautiful majestic creature that could have lived for over a hundred years or more, and for what? Oil? "Science"? The fucking meat?

      almost certainly a beached whale or died of other causes, of the three countries that still hunt them almost all of the ones they killed are either fin, minke or sei

        Something killed that poor beast. And we have to hunt it down and kill it before it starts going after the Blue Whales.

          There's a fun cryptid theory on the subject
          Actual mythic-sized giant squids were once common, they attacked whaling ships because they smelled like whale blood, they (mostly) died out because their food got hunted to extinction/near extinction, their flesh rotted away and the beaks sank to the ocean floor where they'll never be found, and a few survivors still roam the sightless abyss

            Why would an animal be attracted to the blood of its primary predator that it can't eat?

            • 5 months ago

              The theory would be that a legitimate kraken sized squid would turn the tables on the predatory sperm whales. Theoretically some Gigachad squid would breed and their offspring would have to run some kind of sea layer gauntlet chasing food and avoiding the sperm whales closer to the surface and in shallower water as the daddy squid essentially uses his offspring as bait to lure in sperm whales. When the mega squid dies it would be replaced by another highlander esque squid in choice territory. With the advent of whaling and the population collapse no squid were able to acquire that massive size due to lack of prey starving them to death before they become krakens. The hole in the theory is likely the fact that squid are cannibals and the biomass of the ocean rarely actually changes even if megafauna populations take a shit. They would probably just eat other squid.

                What would a squid that big even sustain itself on that deep down? Whales aren’t exactly a constant food source and other large squid are too rare. Real giant and colossal squid are small enough to eat fish and common small squid, but a kaiju sized one wouldn’t have enough to eat

          Dead whales are apparently difficult to move if you're not trying to eat them to extinction.

      Who cares? The world has had 5 mass extinctions, and there is no rule saying that another creature can't cause another one. Instead of finding reason to feel bad about things, why don't you look forward to the new creatures that will have a chance to thrive once the cycle of life happens again and everything does our and starts again?

        Wonder if hippos could evolve into a fully aquatic species

        • 5 months ago
          Anonymous

          Probably not because they live in rivers. Compare crocodiles to mosasaurs. One kept amphibious traits, the other lost them. Obvious as to why.
          Seals and sealions are more likely to become fully aquatic, but probably not because dolphins and whales already fill the niche.

            2 species of living crocodiles do frequently travel in the ocean and fully marine crocodiles have evolved multiple times.

        the skinny mouth works because they eat stuff like squids that are soft-bodied
        it doesn't snap off because there's thick as fuck whale bones in there

        yeah it just seem structurally fucked up though
        like imagine trying to close your weird ass penis mouth with ocean currents and shit dragging on it
