#bluewhales

Just to talk a little bit about blue whales because they are my favorite marine animals! Did you know that a blue whale can weigh up to 130,000 – 150,000 kg? Possibly more than that! And did you also know that whales weigh up to 400.00 pounds and that is like carrying 33 elephants? And its scientific name is balaenoptera musculus, and his conservation status since blue whales are in danger of extinction (.°- 3 -°.)!!

(this is a spoiler, a spoiler for the first cap of Fantasy Weirdos and also because i like so much blue whales or jumpback whales)

What you see is a image of the blue whale’s heart which is the largest on Earth, weighing 400 lbs and beating only 2-10 times per minute. It’s so big that a human could swim through its arteries!

The blue whale is the largest animal ever to have lived on Earth, even larger than most dinosaurs. It has a massive heart that pumps blood through its enormous body. It is about the size of a small golf cart or go-kart. It weighs about 400 pounds, which is more than 14 times as much as an elephant’s heart and 640 times as much as a human’s heart. It’s heart can beat only 2-10 times per minute when submerged, but it can increase to 25-37 times per minute when at the surface.

The blue whale's heart rate is influenced by the whale’s size, condition, and diving behavior. It’s heart pumps about 60 gallons of blood with each beat. That’s enough to fill a bathtub! The blood travels through arteries that are so wide that a human could swim through them. It's heart is very efficient at managing blood and oxygen levels during long dives. The whale can hold its breath for up to 90 minutes and dive as deep as 1,640 feet.

The blue whale’s heart is also very flexible and adaptable. It can change its shape and size depending on the whale’s needs and environment. It is truly a remarkable organ that enables this giant creature to survive and thrive in the ocean. I hope you enjoyed learning about it. 😊🙏🐋🐳

The fin whale is the second largest whale in the world after the blue whale. These examples were seen off the south coast of Greenland.
