Do you know this?

Whales have skin. Their skin is gray or black in colour. Under the skin there is a lot of fat. This fat is used to make oil. The oil is used for many things such as making soap or burning in lamps.

Some whales have oil in their heads.

This oil is valuable.

From 114 to 228 liters of oil can be found in the head of some whales.

Grey whale

This whale is famous for its long migrations. Its main breeding area is off the coast of Mexico, but it spends the summer on the edge of the Arctic Ocean, about 10,000 km away.

Unlike most large whales, grey whales feed on the seabed.

Whales give birth once every three or four years.
