What is the purpose of “sperm” in sperm whales?
Oh, I see. Have there been any recent discoveries or advancements in the understanding of spermaceti in sperm whales?
One recent study found that the size and shape of the spermaceti organ may vary depending on the age and sex of the whale, which could suggest different specialized functions for the organ. Another study found that aggressive behavior in male sperm whales during mating season may be linked to changes in their spermaceti organ. These are just a few examples of ongoing research in this area.
