About the Humpback Whale
The humpback is a large whale known for its very long flippers and its habit of leaping right out of the water. It has no teeth; instead it gulps huge mouthfuls of water and strains out small fish and krill through comb-like plates called baleen. Male humpbacks sing long, complicated songs that can last half an hour. Print this for an ocean unit and trace the path along the whale's long flipper.
- Humpbacks strain their food through comb-like baleen instead of teeth.
- Males sing long songs that can last up to half an hour.
