Comboanimals Information
It has the appetite for fish that a whale has and for this reason it spends most of its time floating in water. It will float aimlessly in the sea looking for its next meal with its head submerged under water. Like a whale It can hold its breath for 60 minutes at a time and it breathes through its blowhole which is positioned on top of its head. It can keep its head underwater for months if it wanted to providing it keeps its blowhole above the water surface. It can sleep with its head underwater, with half its brain awake to make sure it lifts its blowhole above surface water to breathe every hour. It can survive for several months without food and water. It will float like this without ever raising its head for months on end. The living island only comes to land to hibernate during winter or in the case of females to lay eggs.
Adults can live up to 140 years old meaning some living today were alive during the age of sail.
