Blue whale's statement.
Hello everyone, I am a blue whale swimming happily in the sea, many people may think that I am a very big fish, but you guessed it wrong, I am not a fish, I am a mammal. Like cattle and sheep, we whales breathe with lungs and are viviparous, and calves grow up on the milk of female whales, which shows that we are mammals. My body is spindle-shaped, almost all of my body is blue, my belly is light gray, and there are many white spots on the sides.
My favorite thing is to eat nutritious krill, which can eat more than 2,000 kilograms in one meal. I usually swim fast, up to 8,12 knots per hour, and when I am frightened and run away, I can swim at more than 30 knots.
Our blue whale is the largest animal in the world, with a general body length of 24 meters and a weight of more than 150 tons. My dad is the largest blue whale, it can reach 33 meters long, weigh more than 190 tons, and weigh 4 tons on one tongue, enough to fill a large truck, and it can accommodate more than a dozen adults as long as it opens its mouth. We weighed the weight of 32 elephants and more than 300 cows, and it would take five train cars to transport a blue whale.
Our nostrils grow on the top of our heads, and when we exhale, they rise to the surface, and the air that comes out of our nostrils forms a jet of water, which is up to 10 15 meters high. If you see a whale spewing out of the water column vertically, thin and tall, it is our baleen whale; If the jet of water is sloping, thick and short, it is a toothed whale. Some people can judge our type and size based on the shape of the water column.
Our whole body is full of treasures, with high economic value, because of our large size, rich in oil, whale baleen, skin, bones, meat, internal organs can be used as raw materials for industry, light industry, food processing industry. So humans are hunting us, causing our numbers to plummet and endangered, the living environment of humans is constantly expanding, and the area where our whales live is also shrinking; Coupled with the deterioration of the living environment of the ocean, there are now only 200,000 blue whales left in the world. Although the killing of blue whales has been completely banned in the world, there are still people who are killing like crazy, so on behalf of our whale family, I appeal to the world:
Humans, stop hunting us! The earth is our common home, and we have the right to live on this blue planet!

Oops, it's suffocating, hurry up to the surface of the water to breathe the air, it's really dangerous, if I slow down for another ten seconds, I'll die! Now you may be asking, "Aren't you a fish, why can't you breathe underwater?"
Haha, let me tell you, I'm actually a mammal, not a fish. Fish breathe with gills, I breathe with lungs, so I can't stay underwater anymore. But why do we live in the sea?
It all started with our ancestors. A long, long time ago, our ancestors lived on land like cattle and sheep, and then the sea water poured into the land where they lived, and the ancestors made their home in the shallow sea, but the sea became deeper and deeper, and in order to survive, the bodies of our ancestors gradually became the fish they are now. So don't think of me as a fish living in the ocean!
By the way, let me tell you, there are many species of whales, and they are generally divided into two categories: baleen whales and toothed whales. I'm a baleen whale, and the column of water we breathe in is high, thin, and straight, and the opposite is true for the water jet that the toothed whale breathes.
So you must observe carefully when you play with me, and don't mistake me!

Is it comfortable to take measures if they succeed?

Our blue whale is the largest of all animals known to have survived ancient times. It is about 30 meters long and weighs between 150 and 200 tons, which is equivalent to the weight of more than 25 Asian elephants or more than 300 people combined. The body of our blue whale is pale blue or mouse gray, and there are pale fine patterns on the back, and there are white spots on the chest, which is beautiful.
Our big tail is wide and flat, and the whole body is streamlined, which looks like a razor, so we are also called "razorwhales".
Although we live in the sea, we breathe with our lungs just like other mammals. Our lungs weigh more than 1,000 kilograms and can hold more than 1,000 liters of air. Because of such a large lung volume, we can breathe so much less, about every 10 to 15 minutes that we breathe out of the water.
When breathing, exhaust gases such as carbon dioxide from the lungs are expelled from the nostrils before fresh air is inhaled.
Because my body is so big, I have to eat a lot of things every day, and my favorite food is shrimp. We can devour more than 2 million shrimp at a time, and we can eat 4,000 to 8,000 kilograms a day! If we have less than 2000 kilograms of things in our stomach, we will feel hungry.
Since the scale shrimp is widely distributed in the north and south poles, we have lived in the polar regions for generations, rarely in tropical waters, in order to get enough food.
We are full of treasures, which have high economic value. Our body is rich in oil, and our beard, skin, bones, flesh and internal organs can be used as raw materials for industry, light industry, and food processing industry. Because of this, humans have hunted and killed us in large numbers, bringing our family to the brink of extinction and the lives of many of our companions.
Here, I hope that our human friends can live in harmony with us and make our earth home full of vitality and vitality.

I live in the ocean, and my name is narwhal. Do you know my habits? Now, let me tell you!
I'm a big animal, not a fish, but a mammal. I heard the older blue whale say, "Our ancestors lived on land just like the ancestors of cattle and sheep.
Later, the environment changed, and our ancestors lived in a shallow sea close to the land, and after a long time, our ancestors' whole body gradually degenerated into the appearance of a fish, and adapted to life in the ocean.
My belly is white and my back is black with blue-gray and black-gray spots. I weigh about 6,000 kilograms and can grow 20-40 kilograms a day. There is a long horn about 1-2 meters on my head, which is just human guess, the horn is actually my teeth, most people think that my long teeth are just a sign of secondary sexual characteristics, it is similar to the sideburns of the guy called Lion on land.
You must ask me, "What do you eat when you're so big?" "Unexpectedly, I mainly eat mysis shrimp, small fish, squid, etc.
As I swam, I opened my mouth wide and swallowed the fish and shrimp. If I saw a sea beast, I would pounce on it and bite it until it was "subdued", and then I devoured it, and it only took me a moment to eat it all.
Now let's talk about my troubles - sleep! I always sleep with several heads together. At night, we find a hidden place and float on the surface of the sea to sleep, but the squid is like our enemy, always harassing us, how annoying!
We have a very long lifespan, generally about the same as humans, and can live from a few decades to a hundred years.
Okay, I'm going to the undersea school, see you another day.

Students, do you still know me? I am the most famous whale in the world. Although we are like fish, students, don't think that we whales are fish! Because we whales are mammals.
We whales are very big animals, and a tongue weighs as much as a dozen big fat pigs; If we open our mouths, you humans will stand in our mouths and raise your hands and not touch the roof of our mouths; Four people sat around a table and read a book in our mouths, and it seemed very spacious. Haha, look how big we are!
We also have many family members, each with their own habits. The first is our little brother - baleen whale, he has no teeth, so his diet is small fish and small shrimp; The second was my sibling, the toothed whale, who had extremely sharp teeth, so we generally ate big fish and sea beasts; The third is our leader, the killer whale, he is very powerful, if you provoke him, he will be ruthless!
We whales breathe with our lungs. When you exhale, you have to float to the surface, and the exhaled air forms a column of water. But different species of whales spew different columns of water
The water column of the little brother baleen whale is vertical, thin and tall; The water column of our toothed whale is sloping, thick and short. Look, we still have a lot of knowledge about cetaceans!
The way we slept was also fun. To be on the safe side, we always slept in groups, head in, tail out, in a circle.
We were viviparous and grew up drinking the milk of our mothers. We grow very fast, we can grow 30 kg - 50 kg in a day. And we have a long lifespan, from a few decades to a hundred years.
After listening to my own statement, everyone knows something about our whales! Come to us often in the future, and I will definitely welcome you warmly!

Hello everyone, I am the incomparably fierce tiger of the sea - killer whale, people have also given me a fierce and loud name called orca, if I ask you who is the king of the sea, you probably do not hesitate: "shark". But you're wrong, the real king of the sea is me, and the shark is just a piece of cake in front of me.
We killer whales are the smallest of the cetaceans, only 10 meters long and weigh 7-8 tons, but I am also a behemoth to you; I'm 55 kilometers per hour, and I can swim twice as fast when hunting, no matter what animal in the ocean, as long as I find it, it is impossible to escape the tiger's mouth, from small fish, shrimp and seabirds, to sharks, walruses and even large cetaceans are the objects of my frequent hunting, hehe, how about it? I'm amazing! Not only that, but we're also very smart, let's see how we hunt and learn more.
When we encounter a large whale, we "organize" and surround the whale first, and then two killer whales rush up and bite each of the whale's two fins to make it difficult for it to escape. Then the other killer whales swarmed up and bit violently, and after eating for a while, there would be killer whales to replace the whales that had bitten their flippers, so that they could also enjoy their mouths. Minke whales, humpback whales, gray whales, and even the largest blue whale are often attacked by us.
Sometimes, when we find a whaling boat dragging dead whales, we will rush up into the shell of the whale despite the bombardment of the whale cannons, eat the whale oil inside, and fly away.

The calves are born near the large Arctic ice floes north of the Atlantic Ocean. Do you want to know how they were born? Then please go to Garniford, Mexico.
Let's go and see the Leah Peninsula! Because the calves are born in the "shallow sea lakes" in that area. Most of these "shallow lakes" are bays of the inland sea, consisting of:
A narrow exit and a large one is also connected. Because the lake is shallow, Mexico's solar energy heats the lake. Each year, a pod of whales departs from the North Pole and swims along the coast of the Americas to the tropics, with males leading the pack and females trailing. Why do whales do this trek? This makes it because the young whale is afraid of the cold.
They are too small, weighing only 700 kilograms each.
The soon-to-be-mothered whale came to the "shallow lake", where its calf was about to be born. The mother whale gave birth well, but there was always one by her side.
A "midwife", why is that?
It turns out that the calf does not know that it is a mammal that breathes with its lungs. Whereas, mammals are meant to breathe air, so it has to float from time to time.
Ventilation on the surface of the water, which requires it to move forward in the water in an undulating manner, that is, after swimming in the water for a while, then surfacing to the surface to take a large breath of air, and then.
Dive into the water. Since it was born in water, why can't it stay in the water for a long time? Because if it stays in the water all the time, it will suffocate.
As soon as the calf was born, the midwife, who was the midwife, immediately approached the mother whale and, together with the mother, clamped the calf tightly between them and held it.
Lift out of the water two or three times. With such training, the young whale will form a conditioned reflex and will henceforth be as serious as a large whale.
Swimming. The young whales spend the necessary period in the "shallow waters" before the families swim back to the north in peace.

The sea is home to many creatures, and I am one of the little blue whales.
Many people have seen an elephant on land and think it is a very large animal, but in fact, we whales say that it is the largest animal on the planet. Our family has many members such as: fin whales, blue whales, gray whales, humpback whales, sperm whales, narwhals, killer whales and many more.
However, our family weighs about 160,000 kilograms at its most, and even the smallest whale weighs 2,000 kilograms!
In ancient times, my ancestors and my ancestors lived on land like the ancestors of cattle and sheep, and then evolved to live in the sea. Our evolutionary process is very long, the forelimbs and tail gradually become fins, and the hind limbs completely degenerate into the appearance of fish, and then live in the ocean.
We are viviparous mammals, not fish. We need to eat breast milk for a year before we can mature. Fish, on the other hand, are oviparous vertebrates.
Broodstock generally do not have the habit of taking care of small fish. We breathe with our lungs; Fish breathe with gills. We are homeotherms; Whereas, fish are ectotherms.
We baleen whales usually eat thousands of kilograms of small fish and shrimp every day, because we have no teeth and a small throat, so we can't chew, and we can only survive by eating small fish and shrimp. When we eat fish and shrimp, we only need to open our mouths, and the fish and shrimp enter our mouths with the seawater, and then close our mouths, and the seawater flows out of the mouth through the cracks, leaving only food. Toothed whales, on the other hand, mainly eat large fish and sea beasts.
We are covered in treasures, and the whale skin has a soft texture and surface. It has fluff and leather with patterns, which is suitable for making clothes or leather bags. Whale fins can be used to make umbrellas, bras, bow ties, and cigarette cases.
Whale droppings and bone meal are fertilizers rich in ammonia and phosphorus. Bone glue can also be extracted from whalebones, which is used as a raw material for processing photographic films. Whale liver is very rich in vitamins.
The liver of a sperm whale often weighs 400 kilograms, and its content of alpha vitamins is equivalent to that of 100 tons of high-quality cream or 5 million eggs. Baleen and whale teeth can be processed into medical devices or handicrafts. Because of this, we are now on the verge of extinction due to overkilling.
Human friends, we are willing to live in harmony with you, and we hope that you can give us the space to move freely!

Hey, my children, don't think that we whales are fish, if you do, then you are very wrong, we whales are mammals. In addition, I would like to reveal a little secret to those who think I am a fish: I should supplement the biological "nutrition", hahahaha! >>>More
There are two main types of whales, one is the toothed whale, which has sharp teeth. The other type is baleen whales, which have no teeth. Among our whales, there are the blue whale, the "soul of the ocean", the humpback whale that loves to sing, the sperm whale with a gentle temperament, and the horned whale with a high halberd, ...... >>>More

Hello everyone! I'm a whale from the sea. We are mammals, some say fish, but that's wrong, because we breathe with lungs like cattle and sheep, and we're viviparous. >>>More
