Humpback whales (like all baleen whales) are seasonal feeders and carnivores that filter feed tiny crustaceans (krill - mainly Euphausia superba, copepods, etc.), plankton, and small fish (including herring, mackerel, capelin, and sandeel) from the water. They are gulpers (not skimmers), filter feeders that alternatively swim then gulp a mouthful of plankton or fish. Concentrated masses of prey are preferable for this method of feeding. An average-sized humpback whale will eat 4,400-5,500 pounds (2000-2500 kg) of plankton, krill and small, schooling fish each day during the feeding season in cold waters (about 120 days). They eat twice a day.
Humpbacks cooperate in hunting and have developed a method of rounding up highly concentrated masses of prey that is called bubble-net feeding. The hunting members of a pod form a circle 10-100 feet (3.1-31 m) across and about 50 feet (15 m) under the water. Then the humpbacks blow a wall of bubbles as they swim to the surface in a spiral path. The cylindrical wall of bubbles makes the trapped krill, plankton, and/or small fish move to the surface of the water in a giant, concentrated mass. The humpbacks then eat a large, hearty meal.
The humpback whale has about 330 pairs of dark gray baleen plates with coarse gray bristles hanging from the jaws. They are about 25 inches (0.6 m) long and 13.5 inches (34 cm) wide.

The humpback is a predator, taking krill and small schooling fish, such as herring, salmon, capelin and sand lance as well as mackerel, pollock and haddock in the North Atlantic. Krill and copepods have been recorded from Australian and Antarctic waters. Humpbacks hunt by direct attack or by stunning prey by hitting the water with pectoral fins or flukes

they take in thousands of litres of sea water which contain microscopic organisms called plankton which they live off, its one of the great paradox of nature I think, the biggest thing eats the smallest!!
By hunting. The humpback is a predator, taking krill and small schooling fish, such as herring, salmon, capelin and sand lance as well as mackerel, pollock and haddock in the North Atlantic. Krill and copepods have been recorded from Australian and Antarctic waters. Humpbacks hunt by direct attack or by stunning prey by hitting the water with pectoral fins or flukes.
The humpback whale uses baileen to trap krill and other tiny aquatic creatures.
by watching walking dead
In tropical or sub-tropical places
Humpback whales have many diverse adaptations. They have flukes which are tail fins that propel them faster. This is especially important to the whales during migration. They also have throat grooves which help them filter water away from their prey.
Humpback whales are not normally preyed upon because the female is protected by the male when approached by danger. The Killer whale will sometimes prey upon the Humpback, and will eat one if found dead.
They chase after its pray.
they bite it
No the blue whales have bristles like the humpback to act as a filter to catch plankton and krill.
Pink.
Humpback whales blow bubbles out of there mouth and swim in a circle creating a "bubble net" that traps prey. Then they swim up and eat their prey ,whick is mostly krill
Humpback whales are a species of baleen whale, meaning that they do not have teeth; rather, they have baleen plates that they use to filter seawater and extract small prey animals.
Humpback whales are called Humpbacks for short.
yes because their their the same
There is no specific Australian slang for humpback whales.
I was the one who ask the question.
