    Whales:

    Whales are passive, but be careful around them, their passive actions, (jumping, eating, barrel rolls?, singing (can cause damage that ignores armor [a blue whale's song can kill you at close range]), etc.) can deal massive damage. 

    Whales have a LOT of health, and have armor points. This is due to their sheer size.

    If you run into a whale in a boat, your tiny little vessel may be broken. Please remember that it is you who ran into the whale.

    Whales drop a LOT of loot, (it can take up a significant portion of your inventory!) however, killing a whale can incur the wrath of the sea:

    a) Whales that die out of water may explode (based on real whale corpses exploding)

    b) Killing a whale may start a thunder storm (which would be especially cool if storm waves were added)

    c) It may also cause Drowned (or other hostile mobs... Phantoms?) to spawn

    d) may spawn a zombie whale (boss) (does the same actions as the whale, except it is trying to hurt you [so it does even more damage])

    e) possible guardian spirit type thing that may spawn if you kill a whale (also boss)

    Loot would include massive amounts of food & leather (possibly in the form of storage blocks/items that don't stack well), massive amounts of exp, possibly fishing loot (things the whale ate), and massive amounts of bone & bonemeal.
    The Bonemeal & Exp represent ivory and whale blubber (EXP & bonemeal would probably be the closest Minecraft equivalent to oil in terms of necessity)

    Seria genial que cuando las reproduscamos agan um salpique que suelte objetos y que tengan unas ostras pegadas al cuerpo las cuales se les puedan quitar con las tijeras y craftear una tranpa de redstone

    Good idea. Would also spawn very rarely, to reflect their real life situation. There are also some particular Youtubers who want this (looking at Kier and Dev and Camman18)

    They should also have the mechanic like dolphins where they need water and air. Also maybe whales could sometimes spawn beached, and the player would have to help put them back into the sea. This could be a way of 'taming' it, but it would not follow the player like dogs, cats or horses, but maybe appear occassionally and help the player e.g. with ocean monuments or drowneds. They could be bred using a new krill item, maybe?

    Amazing idea
