I like it when they have fruit and cereal, bagels or pastries or toast, and the obligatory drinks. A coffee and croissant is the classic continental breakfast. Everything else could be considered extra. So give the whining a rest already.
A blue whale's tongue weighs more than an elephant. Average fully grown blue whales are around 100-120 tonnes and particularly large individuals have been estimated at 200 tonnes. An average blue is about the equivalent of about 25 fully grown African bull elephants.
Food intake during the feeding season exceeds daily requirements, and excess energy is stored as fat, much of it in the blubber. A blue whale eats up to 3,600 kg (8,000 lb.) of krill each day for about 120 days. It is estimated to take 1,000 kg (2,200 lb.) of food to fill a blue whaleâs stomach.
