Rough outcroppings of calcified skin can be found on the top of the head, around the blowholes, chin, jawline and above the eyes.

Rough outcroppings of calcified skin can be found on the top of the head, around the blowholes, chin, jawline and above the eyes. Collectively known as callosities, these patches create a perfect home for cyamids or whale

lice.
