TRIVIA
The Blue Whale is the largest animal that has ever lived, larger than any dinosaur.

The body structure of whales depends on the buoyancy of water to support it. Whales die from being crushed under their own weight when beached. Dolphins are much more successful at surviving out of water so long as their skin doesn't dry out.
