The Pisco formation is a amazing site. The rapid burial of the whales and their baleen depict a story of whale subsuming to a diatom blood in the late flood period. However, there is more to be drawn from the fossil site. | |||

Though the Flood would produce a general pattern in the fossil record. Various mechanisms have been proposed. (e.g. hydrological sorting and ecological zonation) However exceptions are bound to occur. Whales were not the only creatures found at the Pisco formation. The other strangely include a few few sloths and some penguins. | |||
