Since a whale shark is really a shark rather than a whale (mammal) it does all its breathing through its gills. Although a whale shark can come to the surface, it does not need to do so in order to breath like a whale would. With that in mind, a whale shark can stay underwater from the moment it is born until the minute it dies of injury, disease, or old age. Since the life expectancy of a whale shark is around 70 years, that works out to be around 36,792,000 minutes.
Quite a long time since it's a fish.
100 mins max
40 minutes
The lungs of a whale are definitely incredible. The sperm whale can stay underwater for up to a full 2 hours. Imagine being able to hold your breath for 2 hours.
sperm whales can stay underwater for 90 minutes
Yes. A whale can stay underwater for an hour.
A whale CAN drown- they cannot stay underwater indefinitely. When underwater, they hold their breath. They are REALLY good at holding their breath, and their bodies have adapted to doing that.
Paint does not affect how long the turtle can stay underwater..
NO! Beluga whales are related to the dolphin family and they can stay in zoos.
They are mermaids....... they live under water.

A penguin can stay underwater for about 15 minutes and can go to a depth of 1700 feet.
It varies on the type of whale, but about 20 minutes is a good average.
