| Sperm whales require very deep water to hunt for their favourite food the giant squid. On the seaward (western side) of Fraser Island the continental shelf drops off sharply and sperm whales live in these waters. The bay is much to shallow but we know of their existence by the odd dead whale being washed ashore. These photos taken in New Zealand. |
