Do humans eat blue whale

Answer 1

Its favorite food is "Krill". An Adult blue whale can kill upto 40 million krill per day. They can eat nearly 3500 kilograms of krill in a single day. They need nearly 1.5 million kilocalories of energy per day and so, they nearly eat nonstop. Small fish, crustaceans and squids too get caught when they trap krill in their mouth.

They scoop up large quantities of water into their mouth along with krill and other small aquatic creatures and then filters and push the water out. All remaining animals are swallowed.

The odds of a blue whale eating a human being are absurd for four reasons: 1) Blue whales are hard to find. 2) Blue whales don't have teeth to chew. 3) Blue whales have a throat the size of a grapefruit. 4) Blue whales are shy towards people.

Answer 2

Humans have historically hunted whales for food. That includes certain Native Amerian tribes in the Pacific Northwest, the Inuit in the Arctic, and the Japanese. I doubt that blue whales were an exception. This is no longer sustainable, however, because Europeans nearly hunted many types of whales to extinction during the 1800s to use their brains for lamp oil.

Answer 3

blue whales do not eat humans, however they do eat plankton which are a small shrimp like creature
