It’s Fun to Know: Whale Milk
Newborn whales (calves) feast on their mothers’ milk after they’re born, just like every mammal does. But there’s no low-fat milk in the ocean. Whale milk, which is 50 percent fat, has 10 times the fat content of human milk. The high fat content allows young whales to attain growth spurts of 200 pounds per day.
