However, can someone please add info about size? i.e. length, mass. Ian Page 04:03, 30 June 2006 (UTC)


I am curious as to why it is considered parasitic if it eats algae and not whale. Also it may be symbiotic if it helps the whale get rid of barnacles. (althouth whales use barnacles attached to them as scraping weapons in fights with other whales). Skapur 22:39, 8 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Proofed

Proof read, and looks very good. Added additional species. Added dimensions of one species per request. Atom 01:58, 19 August 2006 (UTC)
