A group of whale watchers got to check off seeing the world’s largest animal up close from their bucket list on August 1, when a nearly 100-foot-long blue whale swam beneath their boat. » Sign up for our newsletter KnowThis to get the biggest stories of the day delivered straight to your inbox: » Subscribe to NowThis Earth: The watcher who filmed the footage told Newsflare, ‘It’s totally rare to have this species behave in such a friendly manner. Typically blue whales are very focused on feeding and not too interested in coming over to say hi. But this whale made repeated passes directly under us. Please remember this encounter happened all while the boat’s engines were turned off and not moving. A few times a year, we get to see whales initiate these special encounters.’ #Earth #Environment #ClimateCrisis #NowThis Connect with NowThis Earth » Follow us on TikTok:
