Whales are absolutely beautiful creatures. It's amazing to think how big they are. But I guess they're a tiny dot when they're in the ocean. I think whales are among the most interesting animals on Earth. Are they animals or fish? I know they are mammals 1, so I guess that might make them animals. One day, I really want to go whale watching. I think it's one of those must-do things in life. I suppose I'd better do this soon before all the whales die out. I worry about the future of whales. It seems humans are doing everything they can to make lots of species 2 extinct 3. Some countries take part in whaling and others destroy the oceans so whales can't eat. One day, we'll only see dead whales in museums.
