Antarctic Whales
Whales are not fish they are mammals that live in oceans all over the world. Did you know that they are the largest animals living in Antarctica?
Whales are in groups called a pod. A male whale is called a bull, a female whale is called a cow, and a baby whale is called a calf.
Whales have very long jaw bones in there mouth. They have a thick layer of blubber under their skin, to keep them warm in freezing water.
Toothed whales have peg teeth so they are called toothed whales. Some whales have no teeth at all so they are called baleen whales.

On the bottom of the antarctic sea there is coral like samoa.

Core samples
This afternoon i have been learning how to take core samples. We took samples from a cupcake and guessed what the core (inside) looked like. In a real life geologists take samples of what is under the land.
