Description: A map showing the distribution of sightings of sperm whales, based on the records of whalers and surveyors. Sperm whales can be found in virtually any part of the ocean not covered by ice, but are most often spotted in certain "grounds" where they like to feed or breed. Map is centered on the Pacific (160° W). This map was made using GeoCart and data from http://seamap.env.duke.edu/species/180488.
