A whale keeps warm from its blubber. Its a thick layer of fat, keeping the whale from the icy waters of the ocean. The feeling of how a whale keeps warm with blubber can be tested yourself: Take a nice soft fuzzy sock and put it on your hand. Then fill a tub up with freezing cold water and place your hand inside. That's how a whale keeps warm! (not with socks).
