What kind of whale is my stuffie

He kind of looks like a sperm whale (square-ish head) so I named him after a Nickname of my boyfriend and Moby Dick, but I know sperm whales don't bare the grooves on their chin, im pretty sure that's just humpback whales. What is he?

I haven't tried washing him, i mostly keep plushies as collectibles so I've never had to

On valentines day at my local Walmart, there was a sale for all stuffed animals and my boyfriend bought him for me <3 10$ for two feet of cute little guy

Large head says sperm whale, throat grooves and countershading say humpback or sei, light color says northern bottlenose. Looks like you got a unique species on your hands :D

Chin grooves are found in several species of baleen whales including blue whales too! This looks like a generic whale combining traits of many species. It’s adorable though and I need one.

Oh yea! In these comments a realize that a lot of whale species seem to have slipped my mind, including grey whales and baleen and sei whales. Thank you
