Distribution – population<\/strong><\/span><\/h3>\n

Cuvier\u2019s beaked whale is a purely pelagic species. It\u2018s found in all tropical and cold temperate seas, in small flocks. It prefers areas with steep, open waters and dives deeper than all cetaceans, up to 3,000m. In the Mediterranean it is considered a common species, with the main distribution areas being the Hellenic Trench (Ionian-southwest Crete-Rhodes).<\/p>\n

The species is poorly studied.<\/p>\n
