If you think it only eats krill you are WRONG! It eats squid, vertabrates, christmas island red crab larvea, macro-algea, krill and plankton. Oh right I forgot to tell you its name... the Whale Shark of course!

I think the whale shark is the largest fish in the ocean - the largest confirmed being about 41 feet long and 40 tons - pretty big but I think they don't harm humans. Oh, did I mention they are fish?
you said it eats vertabrates, that covers a lot of territory, and leaves me with a big question..Does it eat people? how about puppies?
the picture is very impressive...
I have another question..What is macroalgae?

I did think it only ate krill!! Have you heard about the migration of those Christmas Island crabs? If not, you should look into that.
matthew, i wish you could come and investigate all the creatures that we have being seeing around our home lately. i saw a snake a few months ago and took a picture and my neighbor, who is a hunter, said it was a RATTLE SNAKE!!
THEN yesterday we were working in our yard (I was working the flower beds)and I heard uncle Marc yelling for me and a SKUNK had come from the field and decided to come hang out....in the flower beds!! uncle marc threw water on him and he still wouldn't go away. He ran to our garage..WHICH WAS OPEN! he didn't go in,
then finally ran away back to the field. Is there something to put around my house to keep the snakes and skunks out??? I'm actually more afraid of the SKUNK.
