A weird extinct whale with a plump body and tiny limbs isn't the heaviest animal to ever live after all, a new study has claimed, bringing with it a whale of a debate.
"With their weight, this animal could not stay at the surface," lead author Ryosuke Motani, a paleobiologist at the University of California, Davis, told Live Science."This animal would have been swimming vertically up all the time, which is impossible." Amson reviewed the new study prior to publication with another author from the 2023 study, so they knew it was coming. He noted that the study didn't find factual inaccuracies in their research, but merely made different estimates based on their data.
