Variation in blubber thickness and histology metrics across the body topography of a false killer whale (Pseudorca crassidens)

Blubber is a multifunctional tissue essential to the survival of cetaceans. Histological assessment of blubber may be useful in determining odontocete nutritional state but a greater understanding of specific variation across the body is needed. We report on morphological variation of the blubber ac...
