Whale breh chilling. Got his crew of remora fish with him just traveling the world. Seems lonely though.
"Whales are an extremely social and caring species that protect each other and nurtures their young; however, when it comes to having a lifelong mating partner, the short answer is, “no whales do not mate for life"


They GMB :ohhh::ohhh:

People swear up and down they aren’t animals but when you actually look at other animals..........
blue whales typically travel alone. But in late July and early August, they begin to form pairs, where a male will follow a female around for weeks on end. "I think this pairing up is sort of like dating," Sears told LiveScience, adding that sex between the couple isn't a foregone conclusion

Sometimes a second male will approach the pair, at which point the trio will take off in a kind of race along the surface of the water. It's unclear who initiates the race, but it's possible that the female does it to see which male is more physically fit, Sears said. During the race, the female's initial escort must keep up with his potential mate, while warding off advances from the other male — this sometimes results in physical contact between the males, including tail slashes and head-butts.

Hmmmm interesting.
