## General Information

The joywhale is completely light gray and can reach a length from 1,9 to 4m. Their birth can be 2 hours long. It's able to give birth to twins, however, they usually die because the milk of the mother won't be enough. Newborns stay up to 3 years with their mother.

Joywhales live in schools where they swim up to 100km daily and they communicate with whistling tones. Every single one has their own individual sound.

They are able to use tools, like attaching sponges to their nose to use them as "gloves" for finding food on the seafloor. It should be considered that Joywhales are incredibly smart, the smartest non-civilized creature in the UC and who knows if they might be even smarter than some sentient species in the Liskus galaxy. Some go far to even try to kill unwanted newborns or kill them to be able to mate again. Killing other creatures isn't just meant for hunting, sometimes they just kill for pleasure and just abandon the dead body.

The UC has a good relationship with Joywhales, even to the point where they rescue divers. Some help fishers gather up fishes for example. Joywhales are also used for public shows. The UC military trains Joywhales to find sea mines.

## Appearance in Adventures

### Bloodbite Predator

The Joywhale is featured in all 3 Bloodbite Predator adventures. It plays a main role as prey in Bloodbite Predator Great Grey in act 1. They are neutral to the player in Bloodbite Predator and Bloodbite Predator Speedtail. They are aggressive to the player in Bloodbite Predator Great Grey.

This is due the fact that the real life equivalent also hunts sharks. However it's smart enough to stay away from the Gigalodon. They fight back if bothered, but swim away in fear if they see you kill another creature.

They are found in Royal Garden on the surface mostly, but they can also be found in the AquaLife arena.

## Trivia

* The Joywhale is based on the Bottlenose Dolphin.
* The explotation for seashows is just an exaggeration for parody purposes. SeaWorld's bottlenose dolphins are home-bred and not taken out of wildlife. There is a lot of mixed up false information on the internet about this topic. However not every dolphin in captivity is treated well, there are some facilities that do not treat them accordingly.
* The quote from Bloodbite Predator Speedtail is a reference to the Treehouse of Horror Simpsons episode "Night of the Dolphin".
