Whales roam throughout all of the world's oceans, communicating with complex and mysterious sounds. Their sheer size amazes us: the blue whale can reach lengths of more than 33 metres and weigh up to 200 tonnes—as much as 33 elephants.

Despite living in the water, whales breathe air. And like humans, they are warm-blooded mammals who nurse their young. A thick layer of fat called blubber insulates them from cold ocean waters.

Some whales are known as baleen whales, including blue, right, bowhead, sei, and gray whales. This refers to the fact that they have special bristle-like structures in their mouths (called baleen) that strain food from the water. Other whales, such as beluga or sperm whales, have teeth.

Despite whales being terribly endangered, hale Hunting is still happening. Japan is still killing whales, mostly for food.
Please also join the #StopTheGrind campaign to stop whales and dolphins being killed in Faroe Island as part of a tradition called Grindadrap.

The Sea Shepherds are true heroes: risking their lives day and night to protect wildlife in the seas and oceans. If you want to know more about them, please visit: https://seashepherd.org
