💙 The Heart of a Giant Did you know that the heart of a blue whale—the largest animal on Earth—weighs around 400 pounds (181 kg) and is roughly the size of a small car? 🐋❤️ This massive organ can be over 5 feet long and 2.5 feet wide, with a heartbeat that can be heard from over 2 miles (3.2 km) away underwater. At rest, it beats just 2 to 10 times per minute, slowing even more during deep dives. These ocean giants, though massive, feed primarily on tiny krill—and despite their strength, they are vulnerable to climate change, ship strikes, and pollution. Their size and grace remind us not just of nature’s scale, but of our responsibility to protect it. Let’s honor their beat by keeping our oceans healthy and wild. 💙 #BlueWhale #OceanGiants #MarineLife #Conservation #FunFact #BeatOfTheOcean #NatureIsAwesome #OceanLeaders
