I'm a Fish!
This whale skull washed up on the beach in front of my house today. I live next to the Channel Islands Harbor in California. It is approximately 5 feet long and weighs 100+ pounds. The whale was approximately 15 - 20 feet long (a baby I believe), had striations under its jaw, and a very small dorsal approximately 2/3rd's of the way back toward its tail. Thanks!
