The Blue Whale is the LARGEST WHALE on Palnet Earth, THE LARGEST ANIMAL on Planet Earth and THE LARGEST MARINE ANIMAL on Planet Earth

  • The Blue Whale (Balaenoptera musculus) is a marine mammal (not a fish) belonging to the suborder of baleen whales, called, Mysticeti. The Blue Whale can reach up to 33 metres (108 ft) in length and 180 metric tons (or 200 short tons) or more in weight. By volume, the Blue Whale is the largest existing animal or ever known to have existed.
  • Some uncertainty exists regarding the largest Blue Whaleever found, because most available data comes from Blue Whales killed in the Antarctic waters during the first half of the twentieth century and was collected by whalers not well-versed in standard zoological measurement techniques. A Blue Whale's tongue weighs around 2.7 metric tons (3.0 short tons) and, when fully expanded, its mouth is large enough to hold up to 90 metric tons (99 short tons) of food and water!
  • As of February 2010, the largest whale in captivity was "Tillikum," a six ton Killer Whale (Orcinus orca) residing at SeaWorld, Orlando, Florida. The Killer Whale is commonly referred to as the orca, and less commonly, a blackfish. The Killer Whale is the largest species of the oceanic dolphin family.
