    This is the MOST LOVABLE FAMILY, and it is essentially good to follow their adventure on land and in the oceans. Your experience may fail your expectations, but your attitude is awesome, just enjoying once-in-a-lifetime moments while the kids are too cool to be in the arms or in-home with the parents and with their siblings together. Later in life, they will have their own clique, a world where they will be on their own...
    Again, I LOVE HOW DADDY AND MOMMY humbly love, guide and give these kids a very wholesome natural adventure...
    Praying for your safety, protection, and provision. GOD BLESS THE BACKMAN FAMILY...

    I think because it live in the wild that why its so hard to see them ...I suggest goo to Cebu I know that the whale shark there is well feed that's why it always goes there to be feed but don't worry they are not lock or anything is that there feeding area in oslob Cebu and try to be early so your the first group to see it ok... Don't be sad it's... really hard to see it naturally...but we have alternative one just enjoy the sight and thank you for beautiful video I really like it..... God bless you 🥰🥰🥰🥰

      Feeding whale sharks to artificially attract them for guaranteed view by tourists is not the proper way of doing ecotourism. Whale sharks should be allowed to find their food (planktons) in the wild. Respect for nature is essential for sustainable ecotourism.

  • @lionhearted1969
    @lionhearted1969 Před rokem

    Those who are against the attraction in Oslob, Cebu are actually ignorant. They just go along with the others who are just as ignorant. The whale sharks in Oslob may be fed but that's actually a gesture of 'giving back' to these gentle giants. The whale sharks in Oslob are not corralled or herded to come to Oslob. Their movement is not controlled in any manner. Whether they're fed or not, those sharks would still come to Oslob. Proof of that is the many decades before 2012 (when social media was still non-existent) when these sharks came to Oslob to feed. Another proof is during the closure of all tourism activities in Cebu due to pandemic between March 2020 until October 2020, the sharks were still coming and feeding peacefully by themselves. What ignorant people don't know is that Oslob is really a natural feeding ground for these sharks as it is the breeding ground for tiny crustaceans called krill, their main diet. They simply come to Oslob in the morning to feed and simply leave in the afternoon and never return until the next morning. Those sharks are already tagged by environmentalists/scientists to monitor their movement or migration patterns. And they found out that most of them don't go to Oslob everyday to feed and some of them traveled for thousands of kilometers at a time. Aside from the gesture of 'giving back' feeding is done to gather the sharks in close proximity to each other to give the 'caretakers' (feeders) an easy job to see to it that guests follow the rules as told during the short briefing.

    The whale sharks in oslob or in bohol is still wild and on their own natural habitat the differnce is in cebu and bohol they fed the whale sharks so it could return everyday and so that more chances of viewing and go in swim with them but they are also taken care and protected also coz they are endangered species
