This hand-painted whale is a nice realistic scuplt of the ocean mammal. It has a slight curve to it's body, making it look to be swimming, and it's mouth is slightly opened. The figurine is complete with wrinkled detail on the sides, just like the real Sperm Whale. Fun facts about the sea creature: The sperm whale has set several records. It is the largest toothed whale and has the biggest mouth of all whales. It could even swallow a person whole. However, it is not dangerous to people because it is only interested in attacking squid, of which it consumes around 1.5 tonnes a day. Its brain weighs 9.5 kilograms and is thus the heaviest of all mammals. It navigates through the seas using echolocation. You can hear it whistling, squeaking, and groaning under water from several kilometres away.
