Whale Washout

Today I want to learn more about whales. So I'm reading the book, Whales. Here are some of the facts I learned:
  • The blue whale is the largest whale and animal in the world
  • Blue whales weighs as much as 20 African elephants
  • Whales are mammals not fish
  • When whales jump out of water it is called breeching
  • Belugas and dolphins are whales
Whales are my fourth favorite animal!

  2. I'm wondering what are your 1st, 2nd and 3rd favorite animal? And SeaWorld sounds like a magnificent idea, Tiffany! ....and I don't think I knew that dolphins were actually whales, too.... You taught this old dog a new trick!!
