I know we went over this before but just looking at it again FFS.

The largest whale today. No points for guessing blue whaleat 30m. The smallest isn't well known. It's Hector's dolphin at 1.4M

So we have a range from 30 M to 1.4M.

But wait you'd say ones a toothed whale and ones a baleen whale. OK so lets do this again with that taken into mind.

So lets do this again but include Pakicetus
