Blue Whales are the largest known living animal species on earth. Animals that were as large as 27 meters in length (nearly 90 feet) and weighing over 170 tonnes have been recorded. Since these animals were measured and weighed after they were cut up into manageable pieces, the actual size and weight could be even more.

But the heaviest whale recorded was weighed 190 metric tons,&The longest whale recorded was of 33.3 metres(109 ft).

By the antarctic whalers,the longest were 2 female whales measuring 33.6 metres (110 ft) and 33.3 metres (109 ft). But these are not measured in scientific ways.

By the scientists of NMML (american National Marine Mammal Laboratory),recorded whale was of 29.9 metres(98 ft).
