The beluga or white whale is a medium-sized odontocete, widely distributed throughout Arctic waters. |
|
Within odontocete cetaceans, variation in body design affects stability and turning performance. |
|
Interspecific investigations of odontocete behavioral ecology are rare and no such studies have been conducted in the Southern California Bight. |
|
Odontocete cetaceans rely upon echolocation to sense the environment and detect prey. |
