To add to article

[edit]

Basic information to add to this article (in order to help make it more properly encyclopedic): how many million years ago this species lived. Did it live between 38 and 40 million years ago? If so, wouldn't that be during the Bartonian period? 173.88.246.138 (talk) 00:10, 11 August 2023 (UTC)Reply

There is no way Perucetus is 345 tons in mass.

[edit]

It's a 20 m. animal, elongated like all whales. Discussing whether it's bigger than an average blue whale (24-26 m., 110-130 t.) is pretty funny. Yielding 345 t. is outright ridiculous. 79.166.181.201 (talk) 05:10, 18 August 2023 (UTC)Reply

References to claims of Perucetus being as large as the blue whale should probably be removed

[edit]

Since this is just an initial claim that was ultimately found to be far from the truth, it probably has no reason to be mentioned so much in the article, especially in the introduction. 79.167.151.183 (talk) 19:54, 13 October 2025 (UTC)Reply

I don't see the issue, as it is mentioned this was initially the case, before lighter estimates were introduced. The Morrison Man (talk) 11:44, 14 October 2025 (UTC)Reply
