Perhaps the flood of Noah's day created massive changes in ocean temperatures and salinity, which did not impact the whales but killed other fish like the mighty Megalodon. Food for thought...
I'm no scientist, but I would have to agree that it makes more sense that the flood would have created some desalinization of the Earths waters. I mean think about it. It rained for 40 days and 40 nights! Thats a massive amount of non-salinated water being dumped into the Earths oceans. I'm no expert, but I definately think that is a very plausible theory.
