whales

A journey in waters. number1                                                                                                                                                           Humpback whales live in the arctic, or super cold water, brrrr!,they migrate to tropical or warm waters  each winter...
why do whales migrate?
number2 adult humpbacks have a thick layer of blubber, what is blubber? Well blubber is like animal fat that keeps animals warm, newborn whales are called calves, calves have only a little bit of blubber. If they were born in icy waters, they would freeze! so adult humpbacks migrate so their babies can be born in warm waters.
how long is their life span?number 3 scientist are not sure how long humpbacks live but they think that they may have a life span of 30-40 years old.
