Of course there's whale milk. Being a mammal, whales nurse their young. Whale milk is among the fattiest milks around, but reports indicate that at least blue whale milk tastes pretty strange, described as "like a mixture of fish, liver, milk of magnesia, and castor oil."

Whale milk is not commercially available, if that's what you're asking.

Yes, the females of whales and dolphins produce milk to nurse their young. This milk is very rich (lots of fat and protein).

Yes. It is a warm blooded aquatic mammal, so a whale gives birth to live young, and will feed it on milk for up to 6 months.

A baby humpback whale drinks 130 gallons of water a day WOW!!!!!I do not think the baby drinks that much salt water, and if you meant milk, that would be over a half a ton of high fat (40 - 50%) milk per day. Since the mother does not eat in the birthing area for at least a couple of months, this would probably kill the mother within two months at that rate of milk production!
