The Blue Whale

Blue Whales are truly spectacular creatures! They are the largest animal ever known to have existed, growing up to 98 feet long and weighing as much as 199 tons. They have a long body that's sleek and streamlined, with a shape like a submarine, and it's graced with a uniquely beautiful blue color. You'd be surprised to know that despite their colossal size, Blue Whales feed mainly on tiny shrimp-like animals called krill, sometimes chomping down 4 tons of krill in a single day.
