Gray Whales feed on benthic crustaceans that are found on the sea bed. The whale scoops up sediments from the sea floor and filters out edible particles and feeds on them. There is no documented evidence on how much a gray whale would eat, but considering its size and weight, it should be a few hundred kilograms or more of food in a day.
