Spade-toothed whales are the world's rarest, with no live sightings ever recorded.
No one knows how many there are, what they eat, or even where they live in the southern Pacific Ocean .
Only six other beaked whales have ever been pinpointed, and those found intact on New Zealand's North Island beaches were buried before DNA testing could verify their identification.
New Zealand is a whale-stranding hotspot, with more than 5,000 episodes recorded since 1840 .
