The gentle giant of the seas, often portrayed as fearsome predators. Especially before we knew better.

A whale is an aquatic marine mammal that is apart of the Cetacea family. With up to 100 different kinds of species, They are widely known for their very large sizes, especially the blue whale that remains the largest living thing to ever roam the earth.

In pop culture, whales are one of the the most widely used predators in media mainly due to their large sizes and massive mouths. Though in reality, most whales mainly being baleen only eat small microorganism such as plankton and krill. This is because baleen whales have small throats, so it’s not possible for anything large to fit right through. Though it could be possible for tooth whales such as the sperm whale as they have large throats big enough to swallow the colossal squids whole.
