Wieloryb Bowhead
Wieloryb bowhead jest gatunkiem właściwej rodziny wielorybów Balaenidae, w podgrupie Mysticeti i rodzaju Balaena. Ogromny wieloryb bez płetwy może sięgać 20 m długości. Te gatunki o dużej gęstości mogą ważyć od 75 do 100 ton, po drugie od błękitnego wieloryba, chociaż maksymalna długość łuku jest mniejsza niż kilka innych wielorybów. Żyje całkowicie na płodnych wodach Arktyki i podkarpacia, w przeciwieństwie do innych wielorybów, które migrują do paszy lub rozmnażają się na wodach o małej szerokości. Był też znany jako Wieloryb Grenlandii lub wieloryb arktyczny. Amerykański whalemen nazywał to wieprzowym, wielorybem polarnym, lub rosyjskim lub wielorybem. Łukowatnica ma największe usta jakiegokolwiek zwierzęcia. Łukowatym był wczesnym celem połowów wielorybów. Ludność została znacznie zmniejszona przed moratorium w 1966 r. Liczba mieszkańców szacowana jest na ponad 24 900 na całym świecie, a od szacunku na 50 000 przed wielorybem.
