No one picked up on ‘Baleen’. I guess there are no ichthyologists among us Alley Cats.
Baleen whales range in size from the 20 ft and 6,600 lb pygmy right whale to the 102 ft and 210 ton blue whale, the largest known animal to have ever existed. Baleen whales can have streamlined or large bodies, depending on the feeding behavior, and two limbs that are modified into flippers. Though not as flexible and agile as seals, baleen whales can swim very fast, with the fastest able to travel at 23 miles per hour.
They have rarely been kept in captivity, and this has only been attempted with juveniles or members of one of the smallest species.
