Fun Fact: Humans are the only known species capable of abstract thinking, allowing them to conceptualize ideas and think in terms of concepts that do not have a physical presence.
Contender 2: Humpback Whale
The Humpback Whale, also known as Megaptera novaeangliae, is a large marine mammal that can grow up to 50 feet long and weigh up to 40 tons. They are known for their distinctive hump on their back and long pectoral fins that can reach up to one-third of their body length. Humpback Whales are known for their acrobatic displays, including breaching and tail slapping, and their complex songs that can last up to 20 minutes.
Fun Fact: Humpback Whales are known for their unique feeding technique called bubble net feeding, where a group of whales will blow bubbles in a circular pattern around a school of fish, trapping them in a concentrated area for easier feeding.
