Great whites are fish, they're not born as such, they hatch from eggs and stay inside their mother, eating their unhatched siblings until they're big enough to leave.
I think the biggest baby, mammal or otherwise, would have to be a blue whale calf, estimated at 3 tons at birth.
Anonymous, is that your actual handle, or are you really posting here because you choose to be . . . .What? You are correct on the sibling cannibalism thing, but lacking on the physiological aspect. Chickens hatch from eggs.
I really can't believe you guys. I give you a brilliantly snarky post on the pussification of American college students and y'all argue about animal/fish babies.
Would it help if I changed "on earth" to "on land"?
ever notice the way students who were in the real world a while before beginning/resuming their college work look at those who have never been "there"?....pretty well sums up what you are saying, Wise Angel One, regardless of size on land or sea......
Actually Angel I find the wussification of today's elite youth beyond sarcasm or humour. I know old-timers who learned more in eight years in a one-room schoolhouse than some university graduates (mostly graduates in the various "studies") I have met. I find nothing enjoyable about the decline of the world's greatest civilization.

HI Al! Yes, Fecesbook sucks. Any snow in Ottawa yet?
Angel, you said, "on earth". It's your own fault. You let us bitch about this BS. So ban me. I'm sure Wirecutter can tell me all about it. No worries... in fact I'm pretty happy because my PSA test results today, indicate that the radiation treatments have apparently killed the cancer. Now all I gotta do is recover from nuclear annihilation.
That's excellent news, Sarthurk! Congrats! And I don't ban people, that's wc's thing. I didn't ban him, he just doesn't visit the little people very often.
Great white sharks are generally around 350 pounds at birth.

I considered a "your mom" joke, but concluded it was both too easy and too forced.
ReplyDeleteMy first thought was that there are some RINO elephants that are about as big a babies as the crybully snowflakes.
