Challenge Sneak Peek: Communal Contest
Time to get tunneling! This weekend, challenge your wood chewing skills with Tunneling Twigzy. Use the left and right arrow keys to move left and right, and the up or down arrows to change the direction that Twigzy is facing. Hit the spacebar to eat the block in front of Twigzy. Chewing through wood takes a lot of energy, so be sure to pick up extra energy blocks on the way down… and watch out that you don't get squashed!

Orca Whales: Did you know…?
Did you know that Orcas are actually the largest member of the Dolphin family? It's true! The orca (Orcinus orca) is a toothed whale that lives in the ocean and is the largest member of the Dolphin family. It's sometimes called a "killer whale" because it eats everything from fish to other marine mammals, even large whales! Did you also know that Orcas grow to be about 27-33 feet (8-10 m) long and weighing more than 8,000-12,000 pounds (3.600-5.400 kg).That's almost as big as your schoolbus! Much like real Orcas, being brave mammals of the deep, the Webkinz Orca Whale is strong and independent. Be sure to take your Orca Whale to the Tournament Arena for some fun; Orcas LOVE to challenge an opponent or two. Orcas also love chilling out next to their Breaching Orca Pond. This featured Flashback Pet will be available at Ganz eStore starting this weekend! Also pictured: Sandy Sea Bed, Salt Water Safe and Pearl Garden, all coming this weekend to Ganz eStore! Stay tuned to Webkinz Newz to find out what other featured eStore Flashback Pets will be. These online-only pets may not be plush but they’re just as loveable and come with all … Read more
