Replica Melon-headed Whale Skull Stenella This species uses its laterallyThe Melon headed whale is found throughout tropical seas, but is poorly known to science. This species feeds on pelagic fish, squid and crustaceans. Melon headed whales are gregarious and swim in pods that sometimes number as many as 100 individuals. Although the original taxonomist wrongly named this species (the literal translation of Peponocephala means "pumpkin headed") the name has been accepted by most scientist. Specifications: 1: 1 scale
