For example, Whale shark and shark both will come under the heading of shark and Blue Whale and Whale will both come under the heading Whale etc.
I can foresee arguments already [ x ] glad I didn't put some esoteric whale species like I was going to do at first. [ ] a shark is a mammal The question is actually quite vague. It doesn't ask for a species that is a mammal that lives in the water, so potentially Free Willy would have been a correct answer. Or even Michael Phelps. But a shark is just plain wrong. |

That's why Free Willy or Flipper would have had to have been correct answers. But not Moby Dick, ldo. |

Blue Whales are rorquals (family Balaenopteridae), a family that includes the Humpback Whale, the Fin Whale, Bryde's Whale, the Sei Whale and the Minke Whale Sounds pretty much like a whale then |

Floor! They eat on land. And a whale shark is a shark. Not a mammal. |
