Convert whale years to human years and understand their life stages
Understanding Whale Ages
Whales are among the longest-living mammals, with lifespans ranging from 50-200 years. They reach maturity between 7-20 years of age and go through several distinct life stages. Environmental conditions, pod dynamics, and human activities can impact their life expectancy.
Whale Life Stages
- Calf (0-8 years): Learning from mother, rapid growth
- Young Adult (8-20 years): Social development
- Adult (20-40 years): Prime breeding years
- Senior (40-60 years): Experienced pod member
- Elderly (60+ years): Migration knowledge keeper
Note: This calculator provides estimates based on average lifespans for each species. Wild whales may have shorter lifespans due to environmental factors, ocean pollution, and human activities. These estimates are based on optimal conditions.
