Dear MEL Topic Readers,

Humpback whale gulps and spits out Cape Cod lobsterman

The humpback whale is a species of baleen whale found in oceans and seas around the world. Adult humpback ranges in length from 12–16 m and weighing around 25–30 tons. A humpback opens its gigantic mouth, swallows the water, and eats krill and small fish in it. When a lobsterman jumped in the water off the coast of Cape Cod, Massachusetts recently, he was accidentally swallowed by a humpback whale in the water. Fortunately, the humpback soon realized that the man with diving gear wasn’t its favorite food and threw him in the air. The lucky lobsterman landed in the water and was rescued by his crewmate, who had been desperate to find him as bubbles coming out of the water around the boat. Sounds like a tale or movie, doesn’t it? While he was in the humpback’s mouth, he thought of his wife and two boys.

Enjoy reading this amazing story and learn sharks aren’t the only ones that you should worry about in the sea.
