Eden's whale is a medium-sized whale from the bryde's whale family. It lives in warm ocean waters and filters food using baleen.
Eden's whale differs from other bryde's whales by three ridges on its head. It is important for the ocean ecosystem as a consumer of fish and plankton and serves as part of the food chain.
