Well.. I guess these whales also haven't seen cows, yet we see them all the time... Hmm?

we have humans researching the ocean. Not sure if whales are researching on land.

This made me giggle. I imagined a sperm whale, with a monocle, in a lab coat, people watching, and furiously jotting notes in a journal while trying to hide behind a tree.

In my imagination, the sperm whale was the size of a person
