Development
There is not much data available on the development of Mesoplodon carlhubbsi. The mean length at birth is estimated to be 2.50 meters for M. carlhubbsi. However, this is based on extrapolation as 40-48% of the maximum reported length of females in the species. (Ridgway 1989). M. carlhubbsi can reach a maximum length of about 530 cm along with an average of about 1500 kg. (Nowak 1991).
