Meanings of bottle-nosed whale in English

Fears were growing for the 15 foot long northern bottle-nosed whale, as experts believe it may become stranded when the tide changes this evening.

There are growing fears this evening for the health of a 18-foot northern bottle-nosed whale which has been stranded in the River Thames since yesterday.

At least 17 of the long-finned bottle-nosed whales died when they were washed ashore at Aughacasla Strand near Tralee.

But I have a very distinct recollection that the whales were not all Killers, and that some, at any rate, were Bottle-nosed whales.
