They become grown ups at about eight years old. The adult blue whales tongue alone can weigh as much as an elephant. The giant animals live on tiny shrimp like animals called grill. And adult blue whale can eat about four tons of grill a day. Blue wales breathe through logs to breathe out hair. They spray water from holes in the top of their heads. Sometimes the bray can shoot thirty feet up into the air. Blue whales tend to stay alone or in pairs. But how do they know the situation of their family members that are far away to communicate? The whales grown and more, their loudest sound can be heard up to one thousand miles away. The sound does not only help with communication, but IT also guides them in the right direction in the lightless. Cea, well, Young explorer, thanks for listening. See you next time.
