🐾Fin whale
Oluklu balina ya da Fin balinası, Çatal kuyruklu balina (Balaenoptera physalus), oluklu balinagiller (Balaenopteridae) familyasına ait bir balina türü. Gök balinadan sonra yaşayan ikinci büyük balina, ikinci en büyük canlı türüdür, ve 27 metreye kadar büyüyebilirler. Dünyadaki okyanuslardan her birinde yaşayan oluklu balinalar kutupsal iklimden, tropikal iklime kadar her türlü suda yaşamlarını sürdürebilirler. Bulunmadıkları kısıtlı yerler okyanuslardan uzak, hareket olanağını azaltan, kuzey ve güney kutuplarındaki yüzen buz kütlelerinin olduğu alanlardır. Popülasyonlarının en çok olduğu yerler ılıman sulardır. 20. yüzyılda kontrolsüz avlanmaları sonucu bugün sayıları oldukça azdır. Bu nedenle koruma altındaki türler arasında yer alırlar. Uluslararası Balinaavı Komisyonu (IWC) bu türün avlanmasına ilişkin bir erteleme kararı yayınlamıştır.
