A whale beside an Arctic iceberg

The scene centers on a whale moving through calm ocean water near the jagged edge of an iceberg. One fin is raised above or near the surface, while the pointed ice and mountainous Arctic landscape establish the cold northern setting. The broad whale, open water, iceberg, and distant landforms are the principal parts of the page.

Fascinating facts about whales near Arctic ice

Several whale species travel through Arctic and subarctic waters to feed during productive seasons. Icebergs are pieces of freshwater ice that have broken away from glaciers and drifted into the ocean. Although their exposed peaks may look small, much of an iceberg remains hidden below the water’s surface.

Real-world colors of the whale and Arctic setting

  • Whale skin: often black, charcoal, blue-gray, or mottled gray, depending on the species
  • Whale underside: may be lighter gray or white
  • Raised fin: usually matches the whale’s darker upper body
  • Iceberg: white with pale blue, turquoise, or blue-gray areas
  • Arctic water and mountains: deep blue or steel blue water with white, gray, brown, or blue-gray landforms
Questions and answers

Questions and answers

How do whales stay warm in icy water?
Whales have a thick layer of fat called blubber beneath their skin. It provides insulation and also stores energy.
Do whales breathe underwater like fish?
No. Whales are mammals with lungs, so they must rise to the surface and breathe through blowholes on top of their heads.
Why can an iceberg look blue?
Dense ice absorbs more red light and allows more blue light to return to the viewer. Cracks, shadows, and compacted ice can make some areas appear especially blue.
