Did you know that North Atlantic Right Whales don't have teeth? They are baleen whales, which means they have comb-like plates in their mouths that filter food from the water. Their foods of choice are zooplankton called copepods. They eat between 2 and 5 thousand pounds a day to support their 55 ton weight. That's as heavy as 10 elephants!
Although international protections banning whaling went into effect in 1935, North Atlantic right whales are still one of the most endangered species in the world. With fewer than 500 left, they are now the "right" whales to save.
A healthy ocean depends on North Atlantic Right Whales. And endangered whales need our help.
