A Look at the Sperm Whale

With Miami being so close to the Atlantic Ocean residents and locals are treated to the option to see a variety of magnificent marine life.  One of these incredible creatures is the sperm whale.  The sperm whale is not only the largest of the toothed whales, but they are also the largest toothed predator in the water.  Surprisingly while a mature male may average at 52 feet in length, they can get as big as 67 feet with their head accounting for one-third of the length, this animal is not only breathtaking beautiful but also rather impressive.

Even though the mammal is the largest whale and predator, they are only the second deepest diving animal, following the Cuvier’s beaked whale; the creature is able to dive 7,382 feet to seek its prey, primarily squid.  Found anywhere in the open ocean, the females live in groups cooperating together to protect and nurse the younger males, while the older males are loaners and live by themselves until mating season.  The mature sperm whale naturally has few predators, but the calves and weakened adults can fall prey to pods of orcas.
