The blue whale is definitively recognized as the largest known animal to have ever existed on Earth. Discussions regarding the potential for animals to grow larger than the blue whale remain speculative and inconclusive. The forum consensus emphasizes that without empirical evidence, any claims about larger animals are unfounded. Consequently, the thread was closed due to the lack of definitive answers.
