figurine, 56035, Whale

The humpback whale is one of the largest animals in the world. Present in oceans and seas around the world, this cetacean mammal measures on average about fifteen meters and can weigh up to 40 tons. What characterizes it are these very large fins and the protuberances that cover its head. It is also distinguished by its black color above and whitish below, which it sometimes lets admire during spectacular jumps out of the water. Apart from their majesty, whales are known for their complex songs that resonate for us like a strange and fantastic melody. It could be that the latter also play an important role during courtship displays. In the humpback whale, mating takes place in tropical or warm waters and is followed by a one-year gestation. After birth, the calf will remain dependent on its mother until it is 6 years old, at which time it has become sufficiently imposing and is therefore no longer an easy prey for its predators.
