There are different types of whale. They don't tend to chew since they don't have the same kinds of teeth as cows, sheep or human beings. For example, some eat only krill which are tiny shrimp-like creatures that are gulped up and the water squeezed out before they are swallowed. Some eat slightly larger fish like tuna and some go for penguins and seals.

What do whales chew a riddle?

Whales are mammals that do not chew their food. Instead, they swallow their prey whole or in large pieces. Their teeth are used for grasping and tearing rather than chewing, as their diet primarily consists of small fish, squid, and krill that can be swallowed whole. The teeth of baleen whales are used to filter out their food from the water.
