Do Whales Sleep?
By:Melody Pabon, Justin Peptito, Jonathan Arce
of Hamilton Avenue School in Greenwich CT
grade 5
Gray whales do sleep with their blowholes exposed to the surface but
during their extended migration they don't sleep at all Instead they swim
day and night; this is theory number one.
Theory number two is scientist now think that whales do sleep and continue
swimming on "autopilot" and they catch up on sleep in the lagoons where
they have been observing snoring! Others say whales take short naps
ranging from 10-20 minutes.
We still don't know exactly if they do or don't sleep.
