They are so big that they can swallow me alive. However, they only eat plankton. Although occasionally includes other small animals such as krill, jellyfishes, sardines, anchovies, mackerels, squids, and crabs, as long as they are small.🐟🐙

Here's a couple of pictures of me together my Japanese friend swimming with the whale sharks. 😘

This is his most unforgettable experience ever!! It's not every country has whale sharks. They are mostly found in tropical countries.

These whale sharks are only the young ones, we were unable to take pictures of the big ones. They can grow up to forty-two (42) feet. That as big as a bus!

Truly a life-changing experience.
