Every year until the end of May, the famous excitement spreads in the area of ​​Husavik's bay and harbor. At any time, the first blue whale to move can reach the waters of Skjálfandi Bay and stay for a short period to enjoy plankton and krill provided by the bay - after all, blue to visit its breeding We need about 5 tons of food a day for field time

The rumor that the first blue whale spreads was heard late yesterday afternoon, but it took me an hour to confirm my sightings. A huge blue whale emerged from the hull near the hull and showed it from the best side. In the morning, people can no longer see the biggest animals on the planet - but after noon it will reappear, our customers and crews will rejoice in the bay!

Blue whale is the largest whale among whales, its length reaches 30 meters and weighs about 150 tons. Seeing that an animal with such a size rises along the surface of the water, traveling along the surface of the water, and seeing it disappear deep into the ocean again, you can see that huge luck by magic alone It is impossible to express with words!

From now to June, more and more people will travel northward through Iceland to the last feed station near the Arctic!

We can introduce: the first blue whale to be seen is trying to lift the majestic huge tail before diving! The so-called luck may grow to 8 meters in diameter!

Depending on the state of fat, the weight of individual blue whale varies greatly. In summer feeding period, the Antarctic blue whale will receive 50% of lean body mass. That is, the blue whale entering the Antarctic 100 tons weighs 150 tons. Pregnant women may increase 60-65%. The fattening weight is 120% of the average weight and the weight of lean meat is 80%. The blue whale chain is very rare, and since seeds are inherently separate, there is no precedent for a large number of hanging. When stranding occurs, they can be the attention of the public. In 1920, blue whale was swept near Braga near Ruiz Island in Scotland's Outer Hebrides. It was taken by a whale, but har could not explode. Like other mammals, the basic instinct of a whale is definitely going to breathe, even though it means to avoid drowning.

It was once the most important whale in business, but in the first half of the 20th century the number of blue whales drastically decreased. Between 1930 and 3130, the killings of blue whales all over the world exceeded 29,000. This species has been protected by commercial whaling from the mid-1960s. The number of blue whale populations seems to be recovering, with an estimated 10,000 to 25,000 animals all over the world. However, the International Conservation Union for Nature conservation still lists white whaling as an endangered species.
