The Melon-headed whale is found throughout tropical seas, but is poorly known to science. This species feeds on pelagic fish, squid and crustaceans. Melon-headed whales are gregarious and swim in pods that sometimes number as many as 100 individuals. Although the original taxonomist wrongly named this species (the literal translation of Peponocephala means “pumpkin-headed”) the name has been accepted by most scientist.nnSpecifications :nn1: 1 scalennPolyurethane resin castn2-part skull (separate cranium and jaw)nnSkull Length 46 cm (18.1 in.)nnOrigin : Tropical and Temperate OceansnnPlease be advised that this product is made to order and will require additional lead time.
