The Whale Shark is the largest known species of fish. They can reach lengths of 55 feet and can weigh 36.5 tons
(81,0000 lbs). They inhabit both the atlantic and pacific oceans in tropical areas or warm temperate seas. They are actually
filter feeders like whales and have no interest in humans. Swimming with them is popular among divers, the only risk
is being hit by an enormous and powerful tail. These gentle giants are estimated to reach ages of 60 years and are considered
a threatened species. I hope some day I have the chance to see one.
