The largest animal
"The largest animal The largest animal in the history of the earth is the blue whale. It grows to a length of 30 cm and can weigh 112.5 tonnes. It usually travels at speeds 10 to 12 knots. Its other name of sulphur-bottom whale is derived from the film of yellowish microscopic algae that sometimes forms on its undersurface. It inhabits polar seas and only rarely enters tropical oceans, but it does move to warmer waters to breed. It, like the right and grey whales, feeds on krill, which strains from the water with plates of baleen. Its stomach can hold about two tonnes of food. It is rarely encountered in schools and seems to be a rather solitary animal. It is now protected, but possibly too late to save it from extinction, following over-hunting by whalers. Two endangered species are fin whales and the humpback ----- CentreTravel https://centretravel.blogspot.com " "L-akbar annimal L-akbar annimal fl-istorja tad-dinja huwa l-balieni blu...
