rarest whale washed up on a South Island beach in New Zealand, potentially providing scientists a unique chance to study the mysterious spade-toothed whale. The five-meter-long beaked whale, identified by its colour patterns and distinctive skull, beak, and teeth, was found on an Otago beach earlier this month, news agency Associated Press reported quoting New Zealand's conservation agency. «This is going to lead to some amazing science and world-first information,» said Hannah Hendriks, marine technical adviser for the Department of Conservation. The spade-toothed whale has never before been seen alive and remains a mystery in many aspects, including its population, diet, and habitat in the vast southern Pacific Ocean.
