A massive whale that was once thought to be in distress was soon discovered to be suffering from a deformation of the spine.
Several reports on cetaceans with scoliosis exist, however, all cases have a clear cause which is mostly of traumatic origin, like following a ship collision.Due to the magnitude of the whale being in the open sea and its malformation, it was impossible for veterinarians to place a remote tracker to obtain more detailed data about its condition, biology, and trajectory.
The fin whale is the second-largest whale on the planet, behind the blue whale. During the summer, the whale can be seen in Spanish Mediterranean waters.
