Discover the most powerful predatory whale in the world, the sperm whale, known as the giant slayer for its ability to hunt in perfect darkness. These incredible creatures undertake two-kilometer, 60-minute dives into freezing blackness to battle the largest invertebrates on Earth. Sperm whales consume so many giant and colossal squids that much of our knowledge about these elusive giants comes from their stomachs rather than the deep sea.

Special thanks to Susan Bird and Sperm Whales Dominica. Check out their amazing work and videos: spermwhalesdominica.com, YouTube

Examining the nature of the beast. From apex predators to the planet's strangest creatures, Animalogic delves deep into the science, behavior, and biology of the animal kingdom, one species at a time.

These animals came back from extinction, kind of. Long believed to be gone forever, these animals were hiding, waiting for the right moment to return or for a keen eye to find them. Today, over 70 species are known to have been considered extinct and have since returned. These are the Lazarus species.
