		Cuvier's beaked whale (Ziphius cavirostris) is a medium sized cetacean, which resembles a big and strange dolphin, and measures up to 6 metres of length.
		The "Ziphius" Project began in 1996 with the study of a mass stranding and death of at least 13 Cuvier's beaked whales in the area of Kyparissiakos Gulf.
		Cuvier's beaked whales are odontocetes that although can be sighted almost anywhere in the world, are very difficult to observe and study due to their long dive time (20 to 70 minutes), their "quiet" behaviour (they very rarely exhibit any aerial behaviour), but also because they avoid any contact with humans and their activities.

	Cuvier's Beaked Whale, Ziphius cavirostris at MarineBio.org
		The Cuvier's beaked whale, Ziphius cavirostris (G. Cuvier, 1823), aka goose-beaked whale, gets its genus name from the Greek word xiphos, which means "sword;" the species name comes from the Latin words cavus and rostrum which mean "hollow" and "beak" respectively.
		The Cuvier's beaked whale, Ziphius cavirostris is one of the most common whales in its family and is found in all temperate and tropical seas, commonly in deep water of the coasts of Japan, Hawaii, and New Zealand.
		The Cuvier's beaked whale, Ziphius cavirostris females reach sexual maturity at 5.8 m in length, males at 5.5 m.

	CJO - Abstract
		Hyperoodon and Ziphius frequently contained much larger cephalopods with many important prey species having a mean weight of over 1000 g.
		This suggests that Mesoplodon occupies a separate dietary niche from Hyperoodon and Ziphius, which may be an example of niche segregation.
		In contrast, Hyperoodon and Ziphius appear to occupy very similar dietary niches but have geographically segregated distributions, with Hyperoodon occupying cold-temperate to polar waters and Ziphius occupying warm-temperate to tropical waters.

		Scientists from the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution (WHOI) teamed with colleagues from the University of La Laguna in Spain, the University of Aarhus in Denmark, Bluwest and the NATO Undersea Research Centre in Italy.
		The team studied Cuvier’s beaked whales (Ziphius cavirostris) and Blainville’s beaked whales (Mesoplodon densirostris) in Italian and Spanish waters using a non-invasive digital archival tag or D-tag developed at WHOI by one of the authors, engineer Dr. Mark Johnson.

		"There are actually two beaked whales sighted in the Philippines, the Cuvier's (Ziphius cavirostris) and Blainville's (Mesoplodon densirostris)," Dr. Ari Bautista of the WWF Tanyon Strait Initiative Project based in Dumaguete City said.
		Beaked whales are among the least studied cetaceans (the general term for dolphins and whales) because these giant creatures prefer the depths of the sea, like a thousand or so meters deep.
		Believed to be one of the most abundant beaked whales, Cuvier's beaked whale (Ziphius cavirostris) have gently sloping foreheads and slight beaks that become less obvious with age.
