About the Whale
The northern bottlenose whale can be found in the North Atlantic Ocean and cool subarctic waters. They are the largest whale in the beaked whale family and have a large body and a small, triangular dorsal fin. They are capable of holding their breath for up to 2 hours, but tend to only dive for 10 to 60 minutes. Their habitat often consists of steep underwater structures and canyons up to 2000 metres deep. |
