The largest baby in the animal kingdom, the blue whale already measures nearly 7 meters at birth. Entirely dependent on its mother, it grows quickly thanks to extremely nutritious milk.
Surprisingly, a baby blue whale gains an average of 90 kilos per day during its first few months of life. Fed exclusively on breast milk, it develops the strength needed to accompany its mother on her long migrations between tropical seas and polar waters within a few weeks. Little by little, it learns to dive deeper and filter krill through its baleen, like adults.
This Papo figurine realistically recreates the baby blue whale: slender body, sculpted fins, and meticulous details. An ideal model to enrich a collection of marine animals, invent moving stories, or educate children about the protection of these fragile ocean giants.
