The heaviest animal in the world

The heaviest animal in the world is the blue whale. The blue whale is the largest living animal and the heaviest known animal on Earth. An adult male blue whale can weigh about 200 tons and be more than 30 meters long, which is equivalent to the combined weight of 20 African elephants. Blue whales mainly live in the oceans of the world. They are cetaceans and feed on small zooplankton. They need to consume about 4 tons of food every day to maintain life activities. Although blue whale numbers are gradually declining, they are still one of the most important species on the planet, so measures need to be taken to protect their habitat and living environment and prevent them from becoming extinct.
