Blue whales Blue whales are the largest mammals ever to live on the Earth. Their tongue alone can weigh as much as a elephant. Their hearts as much as a automobile. Blue whales live in the ocean even though they are mammals.

Blue whales are as big as a 3 buses. Blue whales eat tiny shrimp-like animals called krill. The name for the baby whale is a calf.

Blue whales can stay under water for 10-20 minutes at a time. Blue whales are blue underwater but on land they are actually a blue gray. Blue whales breath through their blowhole. Their blowhole is a small hole in the top of them.The blowhole allows them to breath.

The Blue whale once was almost extinct. The humans used to use their blubber to make the oil for lamps. Blue whales have increased their population. Humans also eat them in Japan.

I think Blue whales are very interesting because they are the largest animals on the Earth. They are very interesting in many ways. Blue whales are called baleen whales.
