一头罕见伪虎鲸的测量
Some measurements of the rare false killer whale (Pseudorca crassidens)
摘要
Abstract
One false killer whale was caught by bycatch in October, 2005 in Rongcheng, Weihai, Shandong Province, People's Republic of China. Some photographs and measurements (biological and morphological data) of the false killer whale was taken. It is interesting to note that the shape of right and left flippers is different. The right flipper is a typical one and the left flipper has a gap. Right angle of gape is strange, looks like that of the baleen whale. These are probably healed wounds entangled in a fishing gear or something else. These two strange shapes could be results of these injuries in the very early stage of this animal's life. By examing them carefully, it is found that they are very smooth at the surface, these could be morphological malformation. This killer whale is a female with body length 4.18 m and weight 780 kg. She is pregnant, and the fetus is a male with body length 1.8 m and weight 40 kg, but no nipple in the mammary slit.关键词
