No.
Hint: Not a whale. But certain whales play a role in the greater picture, today.

Hint: the species is (still) well alive today
Indeed it did most probaby not exist in its today's living form geological ages ago (and nothing has been found). But relatives or better predecessors of this species did, and you can find a lot of their (extinct) fossil rests.

We need the name of the living form today, and its scientific name

The only thing I can come up with is these huge Whale-shark

However you said it wasn't exactly a whale and not a shark.

It is not a whale at all, or a shark. I wrote that certain whales play a role.
Hint: These certain whales are a threat to the creatures in question.

It was this sentence "These certain whales are a threat to the creatures in question." Who lead me into the promise land.

Jim found the species in question.

In my opinion he has the ball now.
