Skjoldish White Whale

The Skjoldish White Whale or Hvitur Hvalur (Apatocetus alba) is a large species of baleen whale native to the cold waters off the coast of Skjoldrbrodir. Measuring at up to 40 meters long, they are perhaps one of the largest, if not the largest, wild animals alive today. 
The White Whale, like other baleen whales, is a filter feeder; despite being one of the ocean's largest organisms, the whale's diet is comprised entirely of some of the smallest animals known. It is hunted for its rich oil, which is used in lamps and to power machinery. This whale oil is allegedly more efficient than coal when burned. However, whaling has taken a toll on the whales' population, and as such they are listed as semi-endangered.
