Balaenoptera musculus

aka the great blue whale, which can be 100 feet
long and weigh as much as 200 tons!
This one lives at the Museum of Natural History,
of course—one of my favorite places in NYC.

    I love this place. If I ever get back to NYC, we'll go. I remember my grandfather taking me there and I saw the huge dinosaur (brontosaurus, or whatever it's now called?)
