Humpback Whales

Humpbacks have large pleated throats and baleen plates to filter small fish and other animals from the water. A humpback whale's tail is so wide that you wouldn't fit it in your bedroom! The shapes and color pattern of a humpback whale's tail are as distinctive as a person's fingerprint.
