Hi it's Kerry i'm celebrating world whale day today I've got
lots of amazing whales and a few other sea animals as well
subscribe and give a thumbs up if you like whales
can you tell me which is the world's largest
toothed whale so not a baleen whale a whale with
teeth the humpback whale is one of the largest
animals on earth humpback whales are not predatory as
they filter food for tiny krill or small surface fish they are totally
harmless to people like all whales humpback whales are
mammals and give life birth to very large calves
the killer whale calf orcas or killer whales
are one of the world's most powerful predators
they prey on marine mammals such as seals
sea lions whales fish squid and sea birds
the beluga whale was made very popular by
finding dory beluga whales are the smallest whale
they live in coastal waters of the arctic ocean
and in the subarctic regions when ice starts to form
the belugas migrates south towards warmer water
the pygmy sperm well is also a toothed whale it has 10 to 16 teeth in their lower jaw
only it is a bluish gray color with a lighter
pinkish colored under body and here's another killer
whale there's a little trigger underneath that
makes the mouth go up and down which is really great for catching other
fish something that the killer whale is very
good at
the gray whale is a mottled green baleen whale
that often has encrustations of particles on the skin
just like this one very realistic looking
it is commonly found in the coastal waters of the northeastern pacific ocean
i think that's a really nice model
the Blainville's beaked whale sometimes known as a dense beaked whale
are a species of whale that can be found in deep
warm waters all over the world the Blainville's beaked whale
has two distinctive horn-like teeth that grow from
bulges in the lower jaw and here is one of our
bathtime toys a toy whale the Bowhead whale is also known as the
green land right whale they are found in the cold
waters of the arctic sea they have
dark bluish black skin with white patches on the jaw
belly and tail it does not have a dorsal fin
its jaw is arched and it looks like a bow
its mouth has baleen plates for filtering zooplankton and small fish
the narwhal this medium-sized whale is found in arctic coastal waters and
rivers they have two teeth in males the more
prominent tooth goes into a sword-like spiral tusk
up to 8.8 feet long or 2.7 meters the females may grow a much
smaller tusk notice there's no dorsal fin
the Sperm whale has conical shaped teeth for catching prey
they have a large brain and the most powerful sonar
which they use to help to find their prey in the dark
deep sea this causes them to have a block shaped head
which makes them easy to recognize they're able to dive to 1 000 meters and
stay down for up to two hours they live in very deep water
the pilot whale is actually a dolphin they have dark grey skin with a grayish
area on the belly and an anchor shaped gray patch on their
chin they live in the deep water and often
from groups or pods of more than 100 members killer whales
hunting groups called pods they work together to target prey and
are able to communicate using various sounds
they can weigh up to six tons and grow to 32
feet or 9.7 meters
the fin back whale is the second largest animal in the world
it is also known as the razorback due to the grooves
and plates that design their bodies it is a baleen whale
you'll notice that the fin whale features a dorsal fin
and flippers dolphins are very intelligent
and they're often seen playing in the water and even
jumping out of the water they can also ride
waves they like to play fight and occasionally swim with humans
the southern right whale is a baleen whale
and has a broad back without a dorsal fin
there are white pectoral fins a long arching mouth that begins above the eye
and small rough patches on the skin called
calicites killer whales or orcas are the largest of the dolphins
and are so easy to recognize by their distinctive black and white coloring
they have long rounded bodies with large dorsal fins at the middle of their backs
their black bodies are marked with white patches on the underside
and near the eyes the beluga whales are easily recognized by the white skin
and rounded forehead and they have no dorsal fin they like to
feed on fish crustaceans and worms the beluga has a
flexible neck Dugong they are related to the
manatees and are similar in appearance and
behavior they graze on underwater grasses day and night rooting
for them with their bristled sensitive snouts
and chomping them with their rough lips
the killer whale will even attack other whales including the enormous
blue whale which can measure over three times their size
they have also been known to breach the surface to grab
sea lions and seals even partially jumping onto ice flows
to reach their prey this sperm whale is the world's largest
tooth swell and unlike the baleen whales sperm whales are active predators eating
large squid large bony fish and also sharks
sperm whales give birth to only one calf at a time
the mothers form a nursery so they can take turns in finding
food the right whale are the rarest of all large whales there
are several species and all are identified by enormous heads
which can measure up to one third of their total body length
these massive heads and jaws accommodate hundreds of baleen plates
blue whales are the largest animals to have lived on earth
these magnificent marine mammals can grow up to 30 meters
or a hundred feet long they feed on tiny shrimp like animals called krill
during certain times of the year a single adult blue whale
consumes about four tons of krill a day they have fringed plates called baleen
