It is the smallest species classified as a whale, typically measuring up to 2.7 meters (8.9 feet) in length. Notably recognized for its block-shaped head and the position of the dorsal fin on the latter part of the back, this whale dominantly populates warmer, tropical waters. It feeds on cephalopods and small fish, producing a squid-beak build-up within its stomach.
