Baleen Whale Feeding
🎥: bluelifewild · A hungry blue whale lunge feeding on krill. These small shrimplike crustaceans are perhaps the most well known type of zooplankton in the ocean, and provide a vital food source for baleen whales. A single blue whale can eat 40 million krill - or 8,000 lbs of krill a day! Taken aboard Gone Whale Watching San Diego | Ocean Conservation Research - OCR

Breathtaking footage of yesterday’s Lunge Feeding Humpback Whale 🐋✨🌊 Lunge feeding is a spectacular feeding behavior exhibited by humpback whales (and some other baleen whale species). During this feeding technique, humpbacks swim toward a school of prey (like krill or small fish), opening their mouths wide to engulf large volumes of water and food. They use their baleen plates to filter out the water while retaining the prey. Lunge feeding typically occurs in a burst of speed, with the whale

Mind Shock ⚡ on Instagram: "- The video captures a fin whale’s lunge-feeding technique, where it surges forward with mouth agape to engulf a massive krill swarm, expanding its throat pleats to hold up to 10,000 gallons of water in one gulp. - Fin whales, Earth’s second-largest animals at up to 85 feet long, consume around 2 tons of krill daily during feeding seasons, filtering the tiny crustaceans—note: not fish—through baleen plates while expelling seawater. - This efficient strategy, supported
