Childish?? One strange behavior Orcas do is carrying jellyfish in their mouth without eating them. While scientists don’t know the reason they do this, I think it is because even Orcas like having pacifiers to chew on2wk ⋅ Feather0102 ⋅ r/whales

Bowhead whales are considered the longest-living mammals, living for over 200 years. Researchers think bowheads have gene mutations that repair their DNA better than other species. DNA gradually mutates with age and environmental factors. Repairing damaged strands may allow bowheads to live longer.2yr ⋅ orcinus__orca ⋅ r/whales

Did you know that some whales can dive up to 3000m (10 000ft) under the surface? It makes them the deepest-diving mammals. But how do they do it? By adapting their body to handle the lack of oxygen and crazy high pressure. But life in the abyss is not without risk...3yr ⋅ orcinus__orca ⋅ r/whales
