“”””How do whales feed their babies underwater?””””

As we all know, whales are mammals.
So of course they are breastfeeding, but how can they survive in the water?
Should I kneel?
I know that the mouth is designed to suck and swallow like a human.
hey
The answer lies in fat content

The fat content of blue whale milk is approximately 30~359%.
The fat content of whipping cream is about 30%.
There’s more than that
So the consistency is closer to toothpaste rather than liquid.

In this way, the baby whale receives 20Ok8 per day for 6 months.
Weight increases by 4 kg every hour
Incidentally, the animal with the highest milk fat content is the hooded seal.
The fat content is a whopping 600%.
Sugar content doubles within 3 to 5 days after birth.
Perhaps that is why it is also the fastest living organism among mammals.
After birth, the average feeding rate is about 4 days. Gil chickens only feed for about 5 days.
I’m leaving just like that
After that, the remaining cubs hunt and live on their own.
