In light of the recent sighting of the bowhead whale in Cornwall (just the second sighting in the UK), the Sea Watch Foundation has made an info-graphic to show some of the differences between all of the cetaceans that have been recorded in the UK and Ireland’s waters.
The info-graphic has been made in two formats, one in order of family and one in order of cetacean size!
