Who own's this Jawbone?
Today Esther's mum kindly gave us a whale's jawbone to examine.
Whilst out walking in Wanganui Beach, Esther's family noticed a stick like object poking out from the sand. On closer inspection they discovered it was a jawbone. It belongs to a whale. With our new knowledge of whales, we now know that it has to be a Toothed whale and not a Baleen whale. We have yet to work out which whale type it belongs to.
Thanks for sharing your wonderful discovery.
Wow! You must have had lots of fun looking at it. You guys must be excited to find out what whale it belongs to
