Today’s Strands Breakdown

Slightly tougher than recent days, primarily due to the influx of words in this grid and my relative lack of knowledge about whale species. I located WHALES first, which made the central theme rather apparent. Uncovering marine mammal species like HUMPBACK and not-so-common ones like BALEEN proved to be somewhat of a challenge.
