Book
Life after whale : the amazing ecosystem of a whale fall / Lynn Brunelle ; illustrations by Jason Chin.
Nothing lives forever, and Earth's largest creature is no exception. But as a majestic blue whale's ninety-year life comes to its end, something new is just beginning. In a process known as a whale fall, her body will float to the surface, then slowly sink through the deep. From inflated behemoth to clean-picked skeleton, this whale's body will offer food and shelter to a vast diversity of organisms at each stage. Death for her will mean life for others, for a century and beyond.
