The best preserved fossil beluga whale in the world was found in Charlotte Vermont right at 200' above sea level. The land was much lower at the time the whale lived because of the weight of the glaciers in Canada.

The land was lower because the glaciers had trillions on trillions of cubic miles of water locked up. When the ice melted sea leval rose 400-700 hundred of feet worldwide. Weight had little to do with it.
