Humans aren't the only species that can break records. Many animals can break records too. From whales to rabbits, lots of animals hold records.
Blue whales are found all over the world. Scientists think there are 10,000 - 25,000 left. That is just 3-11% of the population in 1911. Blue whales hold many world records.
Blue whales are the biggest animals that have ever lived on Earth. Blue whales are even bigger than dinosaurs were. Blue whales are 30 metres long, and they weigh 170 tonnes. That is about the same as 170 cars.
Blue whales also have the biggest mouths in the world. A blue whale's mouth can hold 90 tonnes of food and water. That is about the same as 40 swimming pools full of food and water.
Blue whales also have the heaviest tongues in the world. A blue whale's tongue weighs 2.7 tonnes. That is almost the same as three cars.
The wandering albatross is a record-holding bird. It has the largest wingspan of any bird. They span 3.65 metres.
Bini the bunny is a record breaker with talent. Bini broke the record for most slam dunks by a rabbit in one minute. He made 7. Bini's owner said that the rabbit loves to play basketball, and he says he practices every night before bed. That is one dedicated rabbit!
Dogs have lots of babies. 5-6 puppies is normal, but 24 might take you by surprise! That's the record for the largest litter of puppies. In 2004, a dog named Tia in the UK gave birth to 24 puppies. That's a lot of mouths to feed.
Farmyard animals hold records too. Blosom the cow was the tallest cow in the world. She was 1.90 metres (6.23 feet) tall, and she died in 2015.
At age 69, Snooty was the oldest manatee in captivity. Captivity means that it lives in a zoo or aquarium. He lived in an aquarium in Miami with three other manatees. Snooty rose to fame and fortune during his life. He received lots of birthday cards on his 67th birthday.
Animals may not understand their records, but they do some amazing things! Is there a record that your pet could break?
