They call it the Whale Shark for a reason. Just as well its feeding habits are similar to whales as well, they're not much danger to humans at all. Pretty friendly to divers actually, they probably think we're funny-shaped remoras.
What a beautiful shark. I just love how big they are. They are amazing gentle giant filter feeders. Their size is elegant and their markings are gorgeous and lovely.
MinecraftTopics, actually the blue whale isn't a fish. It is a mammal. So, the blue whale is not the biggest fish! And i have to admit that your question is really interesting.
I've heard at least three different stories from different family members about spotting Whale Sharks in South Australian waters. You'd think that'd be outside their range...
Nature is just beautiful! So much to see, so much to discover... Yes, they are dangerous, but they're only trying to protect themselves from enemies, danger and from us.
Actually, no. Fish are not mammals. Aquatic mammals (seals, dolphins, whales) are considered a different category of animal from fish (sharks, tuna, anything with "fish" in it's name, like a swordfish, clownfish, lionfish, etc... though the insect: "silverfish" does not count as an actual fish.)
Happy International Whale Shark Day! 🌊Whale sharks live up to 150 years. 🌊They swim slowly at the surface with their mouth open ride filtering out primarily plankton and other small animals like squid, krill and fish. 🌊Because whale sharks feed at the surface slowly they are very vulnerable to pollution, marine debris and fishing by-catch. 🌊We sometimes get together for a feast. #InternationalWhaleSharkDay #whaleshark #turningthetide
No. A way you can differentiate a marine mammal from a fish is the tale position. A marine mammal like a Whale and Dolphin’s tail faces horizontally, while fish tails face vertically
This has nothing to do with religion. Now please don't post these unless you are looking for a religious argument which spams the comment section and BBCEarth's inbox.

Their tails also move side to side like sharks hence the shark part :)
hehe

Spectacular. RIP bait fish, they got baited.
avarice seven ttt ....uuuu.
It’s a good thing That despite the whale shark being so big, it’s harmless to us.
I like how the other fish in the sea feel safe enough around it to get close to it.
i love shark whale :3
I would love to watch a 2 hour documentary on the whale shark :)
the whale shark has so many companion fish.
Nature is so wonderful!
Whale shark: “do you trust me, do you trust me?”
Fish: “yes”
Whale shark: “wrong choice”
😂
They eat plankton
@@ZCR2 have you even watched the whole video?
@@NUFCanimator they only eat plankton. Fish will be spit out.
yall either dont know english or 5 iq no it doesnt eat them but it didnt protect accept being their guardian either
Just FYI, on BBC America they have Planet Earth episodes on reruns sometimes. Hope this helps!
Whale sharks are soo cool imagine if you caught one while fishing i bet your boat will flip..
The prerequisite for getting a joke is to have a sense of humor :(.
I wish these videos went for longer :(
This was 11 years ago you alive bro

That literal cloud of fish is bizarre. Like a sci-fi horror movie.
Thank you very much for these videos BBC channel :)

What are you talking about?
Whale sharks are friendly though i met one before
They aren’t dangerous?? What are you on about
Most library's will have the whole Planet Earth Series if you wish to enjoy it!
those clips are cut from a 1 hour documantry called plant earth, i think with 10 episodes
10 of 10 too ❤
Filipinos call this "Butanding" it's mixed "pating" (shark) and "balyena" (whale), it's an animal that's friendly but a little bit scared of humans
His presentation and voice make the documentary more immense and live! What's his name?
That would be the legend Sir David Attenborough.
Jimmy Saville
Man i just wonder how it feels to be a whale shark
I'm an adult but i'm still curious with all the things in earth like a child. haha
Why does the whale shark look so goofy? 🤣
ur goofy asf

I mean you might say the blue whale IS the biggest fish.
It's a secondarily aquatic landfish
@@chickadeestevenson5440 as he wrote before: whales are NOT fish.

Octonots fans 🙋♀️
It is what you make it. Imo you can joke about anything. That doesn't mean that I would actually eat shark fin soup.
Amazing!!!
so majestic :D
1080p please.
Big fish
very interesting
Aw man , being a bait fish sucks. I guess they named them right! :-s
My biology teacher helped him study whale sharks
amazin!
See the ds logo?
awwwwwwwww
I figured plankton can't be the only food for a whale shark, because it calorie expulsion seems to be more than a blue whale.
Yoo its that warlord guy from one piece
Can we name this one Jinbe?
Why not give it a nice name?
Only if you're japanese. For that's literally what it translates.
@@BostonCream959 i think jinbe is a very nice name
@MinecraftTopics blue whale is a mammal did you not pass science
see i was confused cause i thought that a prerequisite for a joke is that it should be funny...
So, they eat small fish...
Huge thing eat a smallest thing
360p!!
look at those freeloaders on the whale shark's tale!
On land, we call them liberal voters 🤤
