    “Whales can be subject to postmortem fetal extrusion. Many species float when dead, due to the gases of putrefaction. Drift whales that wash up on shore, and the carcasses of hunted whales, if not flensed (stripped of blubber) and processed in a timely manner, pose a risk. Tim Flannery wrote that “A rotting whale could fill with gas to bursting, ejecting a fetus the size of a motor vehicle with sufficient force to kill a man.”[38]”

    I knew they could rupture and explode but I didn’t know that.

        Baby blue whales are 22-24 feet long and weigh around 6,000 pounds when they are born.

        Up to Hummer size, in the case of a blue whale.
