And how they got into the sea is one of the most fascinating stories of【C3】______ Most authorities believe that 60 million years ago ancestors of modern whales were four-legged, wolf-size animals living on the sea shores,【C4】______ an abundance of fish and shrimp tempted them to try wading.【C5】______ 10 to 15 million years, their bodies grew, forelegs shrank into flippers used for balance and steering and hind legs disappeared. As a result of some amazing transformations, they are now helpless on land. If stranded on a beach, they can barely breathe.
With abundant【C6】______ of food, whales grew into the largest creatures that lived,【C7】______ larger than dinosaurs. A blue whale can grow to 100 feet. Its tongue is ten feet thick and heavier than an elephant. Some arteries are big enough for a child to swim【C8】______ .

A blue whale swimming【C10】______ 15 knots generates 1 000 horsepower.【C11】______ their size, these giants move at a good speed. An 18-ton whale can even【C12】______ 12 m. p. h., over short distances. A whale can【C13】______ to 9 000 pounds of food a day. The world’s biggest creature【C14】______ itself almost entirely on shrimp--like krill smaller than a person’s thumb.
Maternal instincts are also【C15】______ . Because a calf is born underwater, the mother must get it to the surface before it【C16】______ Often another whale will help. The mother pushes it gently【C17】______ the baby is confident with its swimming--usually after about 30 minutes. If the calf is【C18】______ , she may support it on her back until it gradually rots away. Like all mammals, whale babies【C19】______ mother’s milk.
