Whales mate by inserting their penis into the female's vagina. The male whale's penis is usually long and thin, and it is located on the underside of his body. The female whale's vagina is located on the underside of her tail.
When a male whale is ready to mate, he will approach a female whale and display his penis. If the female whale is interested, she will position herself so that the male can insert his penis into her vagina. The male whale will then ejaculate, releasing sperm into the female's vagina.
How whales give birth
Whales give birth to live young. The gestation period for whales varies depending on the species, but it is typically around 10 to 12 months.
When a whale is ready to give birth, she will move to a secluded area. She will then lie on her side and begin to push the baby whale out of her vagina. The baby whale will be born tail-first, and it will be covered in a layer of mucus.
The mother whale will then help the baby whale to swim to the surface of the water. The baby whale will take its first breath of air, and it will begin to swim on its own.
The mother whale will stay with the baby whale for several months, nursing it and protecting it from predators. The baby whale will learn how to swim, how to find food, and how to communicate with other whales.
Whalebones
Whalebones are not involved in reproduction. They are made of keratin, the same material as human fingernails and hair. These baleen plates are used to filter food out of the ocean.
