I’m Fascinated By This IG Pic Of Whales Sleeping!

So cool! I'll just let the caption speak for itself.. But who knew whales slept in this position and all together?

In 2008 a team of researchers suggest that, unlike other cetaceans, sperm whales (Physeter macrocephalus), Vulnerable (IUCN)appear to enter short, but periodic, bouts of sleep throughout the day — an observation that Kaplan says could hint that sperm-whales are actually "the least sleep-dependent mammals known." Whow another record for them!!!!
