Blue Whale
The biggest animal that has ever lived on our planet "The Blue
Whale" which is about 30 meters long and weighing a 200 tons is
far bigger than even the biggest dinasour.Blue whale are not easy
to catch or kill.Their speed and power meant that they are rarely
be seen in oceans.The blue whales were soon hunted in iceland and
in a high rate.Between 1930 and 1931 hunters killed upto 29,400
blue whales in the atlantic ocean.
The blue whale has a long tapering body,its head is flat and U
shaped and has a long narrow raising line running from the
blowhole to the top of the upper lip.Its heart is the size of a car
and some of its blood vessels are so wide that a person could swim
through them. Blue whales population is to end. Blue whale is
now an endangered animal specie very less blue whales r left as
most of them were hunted. Blue whales were abandoned in nearly all
the oceans until the beginning of the 20th century for over 40 years
and it is leading to an extinction. These whale are so less that we
can count them on our fingers and approximately after 2 years they
will be added in the list of extinct animals.
They are a dramatic reminder of how much we have to learn about
ocean and creatures that live there.
