Animals along the 33 meter-sized animal feeding only 8 millimeters


Pet food giant with the largest size in the world is not proportional to body size. The blue whale (Balaenoptera musculus) apparently has a major food krill. Krill are small shrimp similar to the size of about 8-60 mm. Unique, animals have a 33 meter 8 millimeter-sized animal feeding, although in a day, the blue whale eating krill tail up to 40 million or about 3.6 tons of krill.
Crustaceans such as krill are shrimp that can be found in all oceans of the world. They are eaten by many animals, including birds, whales, squid and the whale sharks. They are usually found in large groups, with more than 10,000 krill per cubic meter.
Krill included in the phylum arthropods, crustaceans, of the order Euphausiacea and krill animal species there are more than 90 species around the world
Krill body filled with reddish brown spots and almost transparent, when thousands of krill caught into the net then it would look reddish.
Krill eaten because it contains both protein and vitamin A. In recent years the number of krill caught in a very large and the biologists are concerned that too many krill are captured. This can lead to serious impacts on other marine animals, including whales whose population is very small.
