APC w Gotham Whale
Lone individual swimming on the surface unbothered by our boat. This individual had an odd deformation behind its blowhole. There were no scars to indicate a boat strike or entanglement.
Update - This is not a deformity rather this individual is severely underweight and emaciated.
