The two <a href="/wiki/Extant_taxon" class="mw-redirect" title="Extant taxon">extant</a> species are the <a href="/wiki/Long-finned_pilot_whale" title="Long-finned pilot whale">long-finned pilot whale</a> (<i>G. melas</i>) and the <a href="/wiki/Short-finned_pilot_whale" title="Short-finned pilot whale">short-finned pilot whale</a> (<i>G. macrorhynchus</i>). The two are not readily distinguishable at sea, and analysis of the skulls is the best way to distinguish between the species. Between the two species, they range nearly worldwide, with long-finned pilot whales living in colder waters and short-finned pilot whales living in tropical and subtropical waters. Pilot whales are among the largest of the <a href="/wiki/Oceanic_dolphin" title="Oceanic dolphin">oceanic dolphins</a>, exceeded in size only by the <a href="/wiki/Orca" title="Orca">orca</a>. They and other large members of the dolphin family are also known as <a href="/wiki/Blackfish" title="Blackfish">blackfish</a>. </p><p>Pilot whales feed primarily on squid, but will also hunt large <a href="/wiki/Demersal_fish" title="Demersal fish">demersal fish</a> such as <a href="/wiki/Cod" title="Cod">cod</a> and <a href="/wiki/Turbot" title="Turbot">turbot</a>. They are highly social and may remain with their birth <a href="https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/pod#Noun" class="extiw" title="wikt:pod">pod</a> throughout their lifetime. Short-finned pilot whales are one of the few non-primate mammal species in which females go through <a href="/wiki/Menopause" title="Menopause">menopause</a>, and postreproductive females continue to contribute to their pod. Pilot whales are notorious for <a href="/wiki/Cetacean_stranding" title="Cetacean stranding">stranding</a> themselves on beaches, but the reason behind this is not fully understood. Marine biologists have shed some light on the matter, suggesting that it is due to the mammals inner ear (their principal navigational sonar) being damaged from noise pollution in the ocean, such as from cargo ships or military exercises.<sup id="cite_ref-2" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-2"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>2<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> The <a href="/wiki/Conservation_status" title="Conservation status">conservation status</a> of short-finned and long-finned pilot whales has been determined to be <a href="/wiki/Least_concern" class="mw-redirect" title="Least concern">least concern</a>. </p> <meta property="mw:PageProp/toc" /> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Naming">Naming</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Pilot_whale&action=edit&section=1" title="Edit section: Naming"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>The animals were named "pilot whales" because pods were believed to be "piloted" by a leader.<sup id="cite_ref-Perrin_3-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-Perrin-3"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>3<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup><sup id="cite_ref-Ridgeway_1998_4-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-Ridgeway_1998-4"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>4<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> They are also called "pothead whales" and "blackfish".
