The Fin Whale is the second-largest whale species, reaching lengths of up to 88 feet (27 meters) and weighing as much as 80 tons. They are known for their slender bodies and long, streamlined shape, which allows them to swim quickly through the water. Fin Whales primarily inhabit deep ocean waters and are found in all major oceans, often migrating to warmer regions during the winter months.
These whales are filter feeders, primarily consuming small fish and krill by taking in large amounts of water and then expelling it through their baleen plates. They are known for their distinctive, asymmetrical coloration, with a dark gray or blue body and lighter undersides. Due to their size and speed, Fin Whales are often difficult to spot in the wild, but they can be identified by their tall, straight spouts when they surface for air.
