Extremely rare whale washes ashore in Otago
(www.rnz.co.nz)
Always blows my mind that there are still large species we know so little about. Crazy to think that no one has ever seen a live spade toothed whale and we only know about them from their washed up bodies.
The Spade Toothed Whales are interesting but because of their rarity, very little is known about them, and their habitat preferences.
The oceans, given their extreme depths in some places, must contain many creatures never seen by man before.
Bit rarer now
