Humpback whale

Humpback whales (Megaptera novaeangliae) are a type of Cetacean native to Earth.

The Humpback was driven to extinction in the 21st century. However thanks to the efforts of Captain James T. Kirk and his crew a pair of Humpbacks, George and Gracie were bought forward in time from 1986 to 2386 to reinstate the species in Earth's oceans. (TOS movie: The Voyage Home)
