• The blue whale is the largest animal on
the planet, weighing as much as 200 tons
(approximately 33 elephants). The blue
whale has a heart the size of a Volkswagen
Beetle. Its stomach can hold one ton of
krill and it needs to eat about four tons of
krill each day. They are the loudest
animals on Earth and are even louder than
a jet engine. Their calls reach 188 decibels,
while a jet reaches 140 decibels. Their low
frequency whistle can be heard for
hundreds of miles and is probably used to
attract other blue whales.
