A dead whale is the oceanic equivalent to a buffet table.
On the surface, it attracts scavengers from miles around, which can consume the carcass relatively quickly.
If it sinks to the ocean floor, known as a whale fall, one dead whale can support a complex array of deep sea species for decades.
Even in death, whales are a vital part of the life cycle within our oceans.
