Pourquoi est-ce feminine ?

Ballena is feminine because it derives from Latin "ballaena," which was itself borrowed from Greek "φάλαινα" (phálaina), and this Greek term was grammatically feminine; Spanish inherited the feminine gender along with the word. Like many animal names in Spanish derived from classical languages, the gender often reflects the original linguistic source rather than following a predictable modern rule.
