baleen, for straining out literaly hundreds of pounds of shrimp and krill at a time.

Since whales are mammals, they do have some hair around their bodies...not much, but some.

 

Although, I do agree with FC.... :rofl: At first glance at the title....one does wonder :dntknw:

You should read the article on 'sanctimonious hypocritical preachings by the (iliterate) imperials', that's even more funny, though I'm disappointed that Pravda copied that one from a blog. They should have come up with that themselves.

That's a whale carcass that we encountered about 100 km offshore, and judging from the lack of baleen strainers, it's probably the remains of a sperm whale. The bite marks are from sharks of varing sizes, the largest had a bite-radius of well over a meter, and is obviously from a white shark (white pointer to all of you on the upside-down part of the earth :biggrin: ).

Here's a close up of the largest bite. The area inside the red box is where my boss extracted a white shark's tooth from the carcass....and yes, he had to hold his nose while doing so!

Sea Monsters? Bah!

If there is such a thing we have MK 46 Torps and a court ruling to ping on stuff in the water.

CBUs, Zunis and even 20 Mike Mike should do it too.

 

Well Doggies!
