It’s a BLUE-TIFUL Monday! 🐳💙🐳 Blue whales are the largest animals ever to live on our planet. They feed almost exclusively on krill, straining huge volumes of ocean water through their baleen plates (which hang from the roof of the mouth and work like a sieve). Some of the biggest individuals may eat up to 6 tons of krill a day. They can reach lengths of over 100ft! 🎥: @loriannah | Dana Wharf Whale Watch

This is how whale baleen works.

Sound on 🔊listen to that magical noise of the whale’s exhale! This is a Minke Whale, they are members of the baleen or “great” whale family and are the smallest of the rorquals. It looks as if they have cute mittens on! | Oceanside Whale Watching
