The Grey Whale is a type of baleen whale and it feeds
specifically on small worms and amphipods found in the loose mud on the floor
of the ocean in coastal waters. To feed, they dive to the bottom in a shallow
area, roll to one side (usually the right), and scoop up a huge quantity of
mud. They then spit most of their mouthful back out by forcing the water and
fine dirt particles through their baleen plates. While this goes on, the
baleen acts as a filter in which edible creatures are caught in the comb-like
structure. The whale then licks off the meal it has caught with its tongue.
Grey whales are the only "bottom-feeding" baleen whales.
