The sperm whale possesses the largest brain we may ever know. And how bizarre that no human being has ever tried to make personal contact with the animal. In fact, the only way human beings have related to this species historically is to slaughter it at every turn. Contemporary science can tell us little about this whale beyond the size and weight of its various internal organs. For instance we know this ceatacean's brain can weigh an astounding seventeen pounds.

They range across most of the world’s oceans, but they are most usually found in those latitudes inhabited by the giant squid which is their favourite source of prey.
