k 10 Steam, Not Water, the cstaoean
Spouts Into tho Air.
Since whale breathes air when it is
below the surface the breath must be
held, for II water should be taken into
the lungs the animal would drown.
Thus as soon as cetacean comes to
the surface its breath is expelled and
fresh supply inhaled before it again
goes down.
The breath which has been held in
the lungs for considerable time under
pressure is highly heated, and as it is
forcibly expelled into the colder outer
air It condenses, forming a column Of
steam. A similar effect may be pro-
duced by any person If on a frosty
morning the breath is suddenly blown
from the mouth.
That whales spout out of the blow
holes water which has been taken in
through the mouth is probably more
widely believed than any other popular
misconception. As q matter Of fact,
such performance would be impossi-
BILE, because a. whales nostrils do not
open into the back Of the mouth, as do
those of man, and the animal is not
able to "breathe through its mouth" as
can ordinary land mammals. - Roy
