Depends on the type of whale. Humpbacks live about 125 years. Gray whales live 30 to 60 years. Blue whales live between 80-90 years. Fin whales about 85 years. Minke whales 40-50 years. The sperm whale about 75 years.

Most whales live to be 50 years.

whales can live to be many different ages.most live to be more than 50 years old.

Some Blue Whales have been known to live as long as 80 years. It is believed that they probably live much longer, but there are no accurate records going back beyond the 1920's.

It depends on the species, but most live to around 30-50 years. There are two big exception, though. Killer whale females can get significantly older. A good example of this is J2, a wild killer whale female. She's born in 1911. which makes her almost 100 years at the time writing! The Bowhead whale is the longest living mammal on the planet. One animal was caught, healthy and all, and was estimated to be a little over 210 years old at the time of capture! They established this number by conducting tests on the chemicals in the whale's eye.

The average whale lives to be around 100-150 years old. Of course only if it is lucky enough to live that long. Whales go through huge battles for food or for females during mating season so they can get wounded easily which sometimes leads to a shorter life.

Adult Humpback whales are known to have an average lifespan of around 50 to 60 years. For decades man has hunted them extensively and hence we really do not know what their actual life expectancy is. Researchers recently discovered that a whale nearly 200 years old was captured near Alaska.
