it's friday afternoon, i'm incredibly bored, and have an hour left before leaving to get some drinks, so i thought i'd kill some time and let everyone know why sperm whales are awesome.
1. largest toothed carnivore on the planet
2. largest brain of any animal ever, alive or extinct
3. can dive 2 miles deep for over 2 hours
4. can rest one side of brain at a time while diving, and need the least sleep out of any mammal
5. live in all oceans and mediterranean sea
6. loudest animal alive, can knock out prey with sonic boom
7. they fight and eat colossal squid
8. sperm is a funny word
9. they live to 80 yrs old
10. exclusively make ambergris(their puke), used in perfumes and to ward off the plague
11. albino moby dicks do exists
let me paint you a picture of this, if you will. so you're a sperm whale and you think, "i'll just hang out at the bottom of the ocean for a while" so you dive to the bottom while sleeping, wake up when you get there, swim around and screech a bunch, knocking out smaller sea creatures. you come across this gigantic bastard squid, and have an epic battle that no human has ever witnessed before and kick its ass. then you travel back up to the surface, puke up some stuff, and humans use it as perfume.
sounds pretty damn cool huh? if there's one thing i want to see more than a tiger v. bear fight, it's a sperm whale v. colossal squid battle. here's a video of some lady freaking out cause there's a bunch of sperm whales hanging around her boat.
