  1. finback whale

    A finback whale, also known as fin whale or common rorqual, is a marine mammal belonging to the baleen whale family. It is the second-largest species on Earth after the blue whale, reaching lengths of up to 27.3 meters (89.6 ft). Finback whales are recognized by their long, slender bodies, distinctive dorsal fin, and unique color patterns. They inhabit all the world's major oceans, primarily in cooler waters. They are also known for their incredible speed and are sometimes referred to as the 'greyhounds of the sea'. The species is considered endangered due to commercial whaling in the 20th century.
