It is in the middle of the Mediterranean Sea that a rather particular animal has been observed. It is a rorqual, the fastest cetacean of the large whales. The mastodon is different from these congeners because of a rather remarkable scoliosis can we see on a video of BFMTV.
Off Cullera, the 17-meter-long animal sometimes looks like a snake, its body is so “broken” in two. He suffers from a severe malformation in the spine.
Seen by fishermen, the whale was then analyzed by the coast guards of the region. Given his condition, the sailors thought he was trapped in a fishing net. But it was scoliosis that was the cause of the animal’s shape.
