How Whales Feed Milk To Their Babies: Such a miracle of nature these days in the 'world' of social media viral Seeing what is happening, you too will not be able to believe what you are seeing. Actually, such a picture of Mamta has emerged from the depths of the ocean, which has mesmerized the internet public. In this, a whale is seen feeding milk to its child.
More than 17 lakh people have watched this video shared on Instagram by American cardiologist Dr. Afshin Emrani so far. The video shows how the world's largest creature, the blue whale, feeds its baby underwater. People are surprised to know the method of feeding whale and the specialty of its milk.
According to the information, whale milk is not as thin as that of humans. It is as thick as curd or toothpaste, so that instead of getting mixed in the salt water of the sea, it reaches the child's mouth directly. It contains 15 times more fat than human milk. This is the reason why it is also called 'liquid gold'. Thanks to this super-rich milk, the baby blue whale gains about 200 pounds or 90 kg of weight every day.
Female whales have special breast holes under their stomach. The baby folds his tongue like a tube and places it near the nipple, and the mother, with the pressure of her muscles, sprays a thick stream of milk directly into the baby's mouth, as can be seen in the video going viral.
The child is able to drink milk only for about 23 seconds at a time, but this nutrition is so tremendous that the child prepares to rule the ocean on its strength for the next 1-2 years. After watching the video, a user said, nature's engineering is truly unmatched.
