The smallest whale is the dwarf sperm whale and the second-largest penguin is the king penguin (I didn’t go with emperor penguin because their territory doesn’t overlap with the dwarf sperm whale), so this is the closest I can get to a whale/penguin gryphon where the proportions wouldn’t be completely out of whack.

Although now that I’m looking at it, I realize I should have given it flipper wings on its back and little grabby penguin feet for hands so it would fit with the rest of my gryphon layouts. Oops! It’s been a busy week, okay?
