I never really considered how many giant skeletons must be laying on the ocean floor from dead whales.

This reminded me of an extraordinary video about how a dead whale decays and becomes a micro-ecosystem for creatures on the bottom of the ocean.

So, when whales get old do they just drown? Like if they lose the strength to swim to the surface? Because that would be super sad and I would just assume beached whales want to die a different way.

Do you know whales have a PELVIS? It isn’t connected to anything else either, it just floats in their body. 😱
