Cellular Composition of the Brain of a Northern Minke Whale
Journal of Comparative Neurology, Volume 533, Issue 9, September 2025.Avelino‐de‐Souza et al. show that the minke whale has 3.2 billion neurons in the cerebral cortex, as predicted for a generic cetartiodactyl species, which places it and other cetaceans between monkeys and great apes in a ranking of mammal and bird species by total numbers of neurons in the pallium/cerebral cortex.
