Bryde´s Whale:
- The Bryde´s whale (Balaenoptera edeni) is a Walart from the family of the furrow whales (Balaenopteridae). The species was named after the Norwegian whaler and ship owner Johan Bryde (1858-1925). The status of the Eden whale, which is also often regarded as a species of its own, is unclear; it was described as a separate species on the basis of genetic studies in 1993, but according to its current state it is not considered independently.
- With a length of 12 to 14 meters and a weight of 16 to 25 tons of Bryde's Whale is one of the smaller furrows. He has an elongated, dark gray body, which is slightly lighter colored only at the throat and belly. Characteristic of this species are three strip-like beads on top of the head. The sei whale, which looks quite similar to the Bryde's whale, has only one spar in the middle of the head. The crescent-shaped fin sits as in all furrows whales far behind the body, the Fluke is clearly notched.
