In this book, author Andreas Tjernshaugen takes you on a fascinating journey through the depths of the sea, where you will meet the largest inhabitant of the ocean.
The whale is one of the most mysterious animals on Earth. Whales are the largest creatures that have ever lived on the planet. And the Blue Whale is the largest representative of whales on the planet. In the history of the 20th century, researchers and hunters repeatedly encountered gigantic representatives of this species up to 33 meters long, and the weight of a whale can significantly exceed 150 tons. A whale can eat up to 40 million small crustaceans per day.
The blue whale is not only the largest, but also the fastest, with a speed of 33 to 48 km/h.
In our book, you'll learn where blue whales live, what they eat, and how they manage to breathe through the hole in the top of their heads. You'll also learn why they're so big and where they came from.
Blue whales are unique animals, but their numbers are decreasing day by day. In our book, you will learn why it happened that people almost exterminated all blue whales in the world.
On the pages of the book "The Blue Whale: The Incredible Story of the Largest Animal of All Time" you will find a lot of interesting and previously unknown information about the mysterious inhabitant of the deep sea.
