Which animals give birth to the largest and tiniest offspring?

Overview of records among animals.

 

The largest offspring on the planet belong to marine mammals. A newborn blue whale weighs between 2.5 and 3 tons. Adult individuals can reach a weight of 150 tons, while the average whale weighs about 90-100 tons. Thus, the offspring are 25-40 times lighter than their parents. Interestingly, whales are born fully formed and can swim, following their mother.
