In earlier times, many fishermen lived in Oudesluis who also hunted whales. The baleens more or less form the beard of a whale with which it filters its food (plankton). The baleen whale's baleen is a sieve-like structure that allows it to sift food from the water. This food consists of plankton. Baleen consists of keratin and is therefore stiff, but also somewhat elastic.
