6th Anniversary Animal

[Marvinb]

Planet Zoo didn't even have whales and fish yet so why blue whale? Anyone knew or guess why there weren't whales that were bigger than orcas in captivities?

I mean seems pretty obvious why. Like the size ofcourse but also how is one supposed to feed a baleen whales, let alone a group of them? Like with orcas, belugas and dolphins its easy enough getting enough fish for them, but baleen whales, depending on size eat literal tons of zooplankton every day

Also how to move or shift whales from the ocean further to dry land, and tank size and salt water amount.

If I remember right Sea World in California once had a young Gray Whale, as far as I know they had to release it.

Any footages of how that whale was moved?

It was a rescue and was only there for a limited amount of time until they rehabbed it back to health. It was also a juvenile so it wasn’t fully grown and easier to transport

people sure have tried there are 4 different species of rorqual whales previously kept in captivity including grey and humpback whales which are some of the the biggest

You guys, it’s obviously going to be the Blue Whale

My real 6th anniversary animal hopes are:

North American black bear
Elk
White-tailed deer
Bobcat
Sea otter
Walrus
Harbor seal
Great blue heron

I've said this at least a couple times before, and I'd like the Red Brocket to be the next free animal as a way of including a non-exhibit Data Deficent animal into Planet Zoo.
