Large baleen whales primarily use the lower frequencies and are often limited in their repertoire. 大长须鲸最初使用低频,他们的全套本领很有限。
Baleen species, on the other hand, appear to have some related brain structures but it is not known whether these are functional. 另一方面,鲸须类出现拥有相同的脑结构但是不知道他们是否有用。
However, the position of the eyes so restricts the field of vision in baleen whales that they probably do not have stereoscopic vision. 但是,由于眼睛的位置太受约束,长须鲸可能没有立体视觉。
