Un spectacle incroyable qui se déroule dans nos eaux😮 Au Québec, les plongeurs chanceux peuvent parfois assister à un spectacle fascinant dans le Saint-Laurent : des baleineaux qui tètent leur mère. On peut les observer au large de Tadoussac, des Bergeronnes ou de Baie-Sainte-Catherine. 🐋 Le lait des baleines, aussi épais que du yogourt ou du dentifrice, contient jusqu’à 50 % de gras! #baleine #Québec #Tadoussac #fleuve #SaintLaurent #mer #océan #nature #science #biologie
Why Do Whales Spout Water

The majestic humpback whale (Megaptera novaeangliae) gives birth to its young in warm coastal waters, usually in winter. Humpback whales are mammals and, like all mammals, give birth to live young. Gestation lasts approximately 11–12 months. A newborn whale reaches a length of 4.5–5 meters and weighs approximately 900 kilograms. Almost immediately, the calf swims to the surface to take its first breath. Feeding takes place underwater: the mother “squirts” milk into the calf’s mouth using her nipple muscles. Most births take place in certain areas, such as in the waters off Moorea (French Polynesia), Hawaii, off the coast of Tonga and in parts of the Caribbean.
Why Do Whales Explode
Whales are the biggest creatures on Earth… but did you know they never sneeze? Their blowholes are built for breathing, not sneezing — and honestly, that's probably for the best. Imagine a blue whale sneeze causing a mini tsunami 🌊 (okay, not really... but still 🤭). Now you're weirdly glad whales don't sneeze, aren't you?

Whales Jumping Out Of Water
Whales don’t have water in their lungs 💦🐳 But what makes the spray? 👉 water on the top of the whale’s head when it surfaces 💧🌊 👉 and some is mucus, just like when you blow your nose 👃🟢 The rest of the spray is actually water vapor 🌬💨

Like some dragon from the deep, a whale rises majestically to the surface and spouts a huge ball of fire from his blowhole. Of course this stunning image is really nothing more than an optical illusion as sunlight is refracted through the jet of moist air creating a orange glow.
The fin whale has an extraordinary feeding technique. The whale accelerates towards a school of krill or small fish, opens its mouth wide, and engulfs a massive amount of water and prey, allowing it to take in up to 70 cubic meters of water in a single gulp. The whale then uses its baleen plates to filter out the water, trapping the prey inside. This method is highly efficient and allows the fin whale to consume large quantities of food quickly. #finwhales
