Finned Leviathan with 8 in R1346789C1345789 + fin R2C4

I had to invent new names for them. (I was a bit reluctant to call the first one a Whale, since, well, it's not a fish, and calling it food might also be politically incorrect. But then again, Jellyfish and Squirmbags(!?) aren't fish or food either. Not where I come from, at least.)
These are obviously absolutely impossible to spot for a human solver.
It was a bit intriguing to actually find beasts of these sizes. I did a quick scan for N=8, but I didn't find any - which is good, since I've used up all the good names. And I'm pretty sure there aren't any of size 9, since they would cover the whole grid. ;-)
