WHALES
Whales are mammals, but they live in the sea. They breathe air, but they cannot live on land. Some types of whales are very large indeed. Blue whale for example, can grow more than 30 meter in length. They are the largest animals that have live on earth.
At glance whales look rather like fish. However, there are some important differences in their external structures. Whales have tails that are broad, flat and horizontal. These tails function as paddles. They also have single nostrils on top of their large, broad head.
A whale's skin is smooth and shiny. Beneath there is a layer of fat or blubber. The fat is up to 30 cm in thickness. This fat keeps heat and fluid so that it can live in cold water.
