Cassandra Snyder+FollowBlue whale encounter stuns California boatersImagine being out on the water and suddenly spotting the world’s largest—and loudest—animal just 12 miles off the California coast. That’s what happened for some lucky folks near Dana Point, who witnessed not one, but five blue whales feeding right in front of them. These gentle giants can reach up to 110 feet long and weigh as much as 330,000 pounds—about the size of a 10-story building! Even more wild: their calls are so powerful, other whales can hear them from 1,000 miles away. Has anyone else had a close-up with these ocean legends? #Pets #BlueWhale #CaliforniaCoast1743Share
