| Toothed whales (odontocetes) like sperm whales emit high-frequency underwater sounds (echolocate). Their highly specialized and narrow mandible (lower jaw) has around 25 teeth which allows high-frequency sounds to be transmitted back to the inner ear. Sperm whales feed in the depths of the ocean on giant squid, smaller squid, octopus, fish, or even crustaceans using a extremely deafeningly high pitched echolocation that stuns its prey. |
