There is a chance that the ancient whale could be the heaviest animal ever

The Perucetus colossus museum: Where the ancient whales lived, and why they haven’t left, but they have continued

Perucetus colossus belongs to a group of extinct whales known as the basilosaurids, at least one of which Pyenson describes as a “a long slinky animal”. He believes that the blue whale was more than a pound lighter. He says he should be counted as a sceptic.

Evidence from bone microstructure supports the transition of whales from land to sea. There is a 10 on the website of the journal, PLoS ONE.

Geerat Vermeij, a palaeobiologist at the University of California, Davis, calls the research “extremely cool”. He believes that it is amazing to find something that is as important as this in this day and age.

The museum has become a hub for Peruvian palaeontology, according to Salas-Gismondi. Foreign palaeontologists used to take their fossils to their countries before the museum. We now have a bigger palaeontologists and funding, and the fossils can stay here.

What the whale in the Ica River Valley (East Pisco Basin, Peru) would’ve looked like in the flesh, says Amson

The team made a visual reconstruction out of what the whale might have looked like, but they caution that some of the details are speculative. It could have been thinner. But it also could have been quite a bit longer or fatter, Amson says.

So what does Amson personally think P. colossus — possibly the heaviest animal that ever lived — would have looked like in the flesh? He says it’s probably like a giant sausage.
