Today I learned that a 2013 study reclassified Pygmy Right Whales as a member of the cetotheres, a previously thought extinct group of baleen whales that were prey to the megalodon, among others. This effectively brings the family ‘back from the dead.’ youtu.be/NuB3uSCw6-0
I made 5 wedding town whales thinking the fusion whales required 2 of each. Turns out you just needed 3 wedding town whales to complete the quest. Oh well, 3 pairs of Pygmy right whales.
TIL the Cetotheriidae family of whales isn't actually extinct, in 2013 the Pygmy right whale was discovered resurrecting Cetotheriidae from extinction! en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pyg…

Microplastics found in every marine mammal surveyed in UK study.

Above your water bar will be an ink bar (similar to that of the bluefish concept)
When you first spawn in this bar will be empty meaning that you will have to fill it up. how do you fill it up? With squids!
By eating squids you borrow some of their ink. the more squids you consume the more your ink bar will fill up. it will take anywhere from 15 to 20 squids to fill it up.
Once filled the player will be able to use it by pressing the w key the whale would gain a 15% speed burst while leaving a reddish brown liquid behind it any predators that get caught in this will receive a -20 movement speed and lose a slither of health every two seconds they stay in it the poo itself will last for over 20 seconds.

Pygmy Whale mount camera glitch?
Anyone else have the camera locked in a super zoomed in, close to the ground position if you jump or teleport while on this mount? It's like the camera goes back to your wizard's height like you aren't riding a mount, very annoying.
Like the common hippo, the pygmy hippo is more closely related to cetaceans (whales and dolphins) than it is to other ungulate land mammals.

TIL Dwarf sperm whales and pygmy sperm whales are unique among cetaceans in using a form of "ink" to evade predation in a manner similar to squid. Both species have a sac in their intestinal tract that contains up to 12 l of reddish-brown fluid, which can be ejected to confuse predators. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dwa…
