What made you want to look up nates? Please tell us where you read or heard it (including the quote, if possible).
A blue whale can weigh as much as 200 short tons (400,000 lbs). An adult blue whale can weigh up to around 180 metric tons (400,000lbs). A blue whale can weigh as much as 200 short tons (400,000 lbs).An adult blue whale can weigh up to around 180 metric tons (400,000lbs). A blue whale calve can weigh up to 2.7 metric tons (almost 6000lbs)
Thanks to waterâs buoyancy, whales can be far heavier without collapsing on themselves. A 100-foot-long blue whale can weigh 150 tons or more, three times heavier than a dinosaur of the same size. Much as it pains me to do it, I have to hand the title of âLargest Animal of All Timeâ to Team Cetacea. But if we look beyond the superlative, the close call between dinosaurs and whales highlights an underlying pattern in what giants can achieve.
