Abstract/Description: | A baleen whale was found stranded (N 13°03.643', E 74°46.737') on 13.9.13 in the Sasihitlu beach of Karnataka (Fig.1). Ceteaceans are split between two main groups - Odontoceti (toothed whales) and Mysticeti (baleen whales). Different groups of marine mammals have different feeding ecologies. Mysticetes (baleen whales) feed on shoaling fishes and small invertebrates. Baleen whales are batch feeders, taking in large amount of prey and filtering them from the waters. They take huge quantity of water with the aid of their expandable throat. |
