The tail stock of a baleen whale refers to the large, horizontal, paddle-like structure at the end of the whale's body, commonly known as the fluke. This muscular, bifurcated appendage is crucial for propulsion and maneuverability in the water, allowing the whale to swim efficiently. The tail stock plays a vital role in the whale's ability to breach, dive, and perform other movements essential for feeding and migration.
