Aquatic means living in water , since they are quite large enough up to 120 feet and live in groups also they need food in large quantity and large space to roam. Such space only in seas , so they live in Sea. They keep roaming all around the world where there is appropriate food supply. The appearance of the food is seasonal, and they travel great distances looking for and waiting for the food to appear. Whales lives nearly 60 to 80 years. But Baleen Whale , the bowhead family member lives nearly up to 200 years. Good places to see blue whale are Costa Rica Dome, Arctic Convergence, Saint Lawrence Sea Way (Canada) .
Whales cannot talk , they communicate by a very special way, they make very special sound , which travel long distances conveying message from one whale to another and from one whale group to another.
During the 20th century because of commercial whaling , blue whales worldwide are reduced to less than 10 % of the original population. The Species has not yet recovered from that massacre.
