do whales eat crabs
Belugas may have some sense of taste, but they do not have the brain receptors or olfactory structures for the sense of smell. What do beluga whales eat? Beluga whales are diverse eaters, with more than 100 prey species identified including salmon, capelin, herring, shrimp, Arctic cod, flounder, and even crab. They feed in both open water (pelagic) or on the bottom (benthic) and in shallow and deepwater habitats.
