Watch the process of turning giant fossilized killer clamshells into stunning pieces of art.
These clamshells became extinct around 180.000 years ago, during the later Pleistocene period.
The reason they became extinct is because the world flooded when a glacier covering most of Europe melted.
This created an ocean within the glacier, 180.000 years ago the ice broke and released an enormous amount of water.
Thus sea levels rise 20 meter, 60 feet.

    vendix101 He clearly says "Kenya is the only place you can swim with the whale shark in the morning, the biggest fish in the ocean, and in the afternoon drive inland to see an elephant, the biggest animal on land." Does that happen in the Phillipines too? No? Well, there is your answer. He didn't say Whale sharks are found in Kenya only.
