What is a dwarf of a sperm?
Whale dwarf sperm, or kogia sim , is a smaller relative of the sperm of the whale. The species lives in warm waters around the world and feeds on fish, crustaceans and cephalopods. The sperm dwarf whales are shy and rarely remain near the ocean surface, making them an elusive and difficult to study species. As a result, the impact of threats on species such as ships, nets, sea debris and pollution is not fully known.
The whale of adult sperm dwarfs usually reaches a length of 9 feet (2.7 m) and weighs between £ 300 and £ 600. (135-270 kg). Sperm whales for dwarves are generally larger than women. The dorsal fin in the middle of the back varies in the form - some dwarf whales have more triangular fins, while others have a curve or pointed fin. Their coloring of the skin is dark grayish blue or brown with light pink or white belly. The lower jaw of the sperm dwarf is significantly shorter than the upper jaw, although the lower jaw of Contains more sets of teeth. WhaleIt eats an organ and spermacet by an organ that produces oil.
The sperm of the dwarf sperm inhabits tropical and mild waters in the ocean, living in several parts of the world, including the coastal waters surrounding Australia, Indonesia, South Africa and Chile. They are also located in the Gulf of Mexico, the Gulf, British Columbia, Japan and California. The overall population is not known due to rare observation of the species.
When sperm whales appear on the sea surface, they do it individually or in small groups and maintain most of their bodies hidden underwater when they float. Illitable whales generally do not apply to ships or approach people. It differs from other types of small whales by falling directly back into the water without rolling first.
cefalopods such as octopus and crustaceans such as crabs, serve as the main source for dwarf sperm, except for several types of fish. Immerses onThe bottom of the sea to hunt food and use suction technique to catch it.
The whales of the dwarf dwarf sperm usually give birth to calves during the summer months. The calves weigh up to £ 110. (50 kg) and measure a length of about 3 feet (1 m). In general, they are shut down around 1 year of age.
Potential predators of dwarf sperm include large white sharks and killer whales. When there is a threat, the dwarf whale of the sperm is shooting 3 gallons (or 12 liters) brownish red liquid and form an ink cloud that allows him to escape the predators. Human threats for this species include fishing nets, ships and sound and water pollution in the ocean. In addition, fishermen are also hunting in several areas and killing them. The Sea Mammal Protection Act seeks to reduce these threats by different measures.
