  • instead of teeth, the blue whale has a row of plates in its mouth.
  • they don't sleep or else they would sink and drown, instead they take very short naps.
  • they have very thick layers of blubber used to keep them warm in cold waters.
  • some whales have 2 blow holes instead of one so they can stay under water longer.

Blue Whales have two blowholes instead of one (unlike other whales). This helps them stay underwater for a longer period of time.
