The Baird's beaked whale (Berardius bairdii) was a medium sized cetacean, a toothed whale, indigenous to planet Earth.
The image of a Baird's beaked whale appeared on a display within the HMS Bounty when Spock searched for a match for the sounds of the Cetacean Probe amongst Earth's animals. (TOS movie: The Voyage Home)
