No, Tillikum and Shamu are not the same whale. Shamu was a stage name used for several different orcas in SeaWorld shows over the years, while Tillikum was a specific male orca that gained attention for being involved in several incidents at SeaWorld.

What would you use to measure the mass of a blue whale?

To measure the mass of a blue whale, you would typically use a specialized scale or weighbridge designed to accommodate large animals like whales. This scale would be placed under the whale to accurately measure its mass. Additionally, scientific equipment such as hydrophones and drones can also be used to estimate the size and weight of the whale.


What appendage does the skeleton of a whales fin resemble?

On the outside, the fins of a whale resemble the fins of a fish, because they have evolved for the same purpose. But when you look at a whale skeleton, the fins look like arms and hands. That's because whales are not fish, they are actually mammals that have evolved from land-dwelling creatures with four legs.


What is made out of whale sperm?

No. This one's going to take some explaining. In days past, when there were a lot of whales in the ocean, brave men set to sea in ships to hunt the Sperm Whale. In the head of this whale is a chamber called the case; the case is filled with a waxy substance called spermaceti. It is a wonderful product for making cosmetics, including lipsticks, as it has no odor and feels very nice on your skin. Today, the same product (also called cetyl palmitate) is made from Jojoba oil, which comes from a plant. It's better for the environment and also for the people harvesting it: no one has ever been drowned by a mad jojoba plant with a harpoon in its side. Whales are a different story.


Is a hippo an ancestor of the whale?
