Description: Moby Dick was the name of a hyper-aggressive male albino Sperm Whale that appeared in the classic novel titled Moby-Dick by Herman Melville in 1851, even in today's time, the book still remains popular among readers, with critics calling it "the greatest book of the sea ever written." In the book, Captain Ahab, the captain of the whaling ship called the Pequod, seeks revenge on the white whale for biting off his leg at the knee on Captain Ahab's previous voyage, elements of real life whaling vessels are shown in the book, including the hunting of whales, extracting of whale oil, and even the real animal Moby Dick is based on. Moby Dick was based on a real male albino Sperm Whale named Mocha Dick, this individual Sperm Whale was believed to be the only white whale in the oceans, though he was quite docile in nature, he is capable of fighting back hard with ferocity and cunning instincts when attacked, when really agitated, he would let out a loud call then breach out of the water so aggressively that his entire body would be out of the water. However, Mocha Dick was killed in 1838 when he reacted aggressively to a distraught female Sperm Whale whose calf was killed by whalers, he fought his hardest, but in the end, Mocha Dick had been slain by the whalers. In today's age, there have been more sightings of albino Sperm Whales and other whale species with albinism, in fact, a lot of male albino Sperm Whales are reported to be more aggressive than their normal counterparts, and even then they are a rare sight to behold, that is they can be seen before whaling industries hunt them all.

Personal Thoughts: I have read this book and heard about real albino Sperm Whales, the book is pretty amazing when you get to really read it. I do like how they paid attention to detail with the scars on the in game animal, though there are a few problems with this one in the game. First off, why does the top jaw have teeth? Real Sperm Whales don't have teeth on the upper jaw, I can see this trying to pass as a Livyatan, but a modern Sperm Whale like Moby Dick is based on should not have upper teeth. The animations and AI it uses are of the Manatee, which I can see why they would go for that, as most Dolphin AI and animation whales move way too fast, that's why they should have looked at the Livyatan made by Austroraptor, Lookout and DinosaurMan, this isn't really a problem, but all Whale mods should look at the Livyatan to get the right speed. And the final problem with it, it does not breed properly, it'll say it's about to give birth, but nothing happens.
My Rating: 8/10
