  • "What the hell are you doing here....?" or "Guys you look ridiculous..." What could be in the mind of the fish? Post your ideas...

      Yeah, it looks as if he is fascinated by the bubbles, but totally ignores the divers.

    Some things I do know about whale sharks is: (1) they can grow to an average length of around 46 feet, but their largest recorded length, although very rarely, is up to 'nearly' 60 feet. (2) Their average life span is up to 70 years. (3) They can only swim up to 5 km/h.
    (4) Their closest relatives are nurse sharks and zebra sharks. (5) Whale sharks are filter feeders that mostly consume plankton, but will some time consume large groups of very tiny fish as well. (6) There are several subspecies of whale sharks-
    Mexican Gulf Whale Shark, Ningaloo Whale Shark, Galapagos Whale Shark,
    Maldives Whale shark, Belize Whale Shark, and Panamanian Whale Shark. (7) Their coloration ranges from blue to grey or even brown. (8) Yes, whale sharks can show some signs of curiosity, once in a while.

    Out of the blue a whale shark appears and watches divers doing safety stop...
    Happened during our latest dive trip, near Similan Islands, Feb 2014.

    For some undefinhable reasons whale sharks, orcas, humpback whales seem to like us. Thank´s god, otherwise yachting would be a dangerous thing.

    Not the least curious about the divers. If you had known a little about this gentle giant migrant, you would know that it does only two things: It swims and it eats, all its time. The menu consists of krill, plankton and small fish. And that type of small crustaceans,shrimp, fish, swarm/school in huge numbers. So what has that got to do with it? The bubbles look like swarming small fish. That's why whale sharks often swim after divers. They are trying to eat the bubbles.

    note: whale sharks are harmless to humans, they only eat small fish

    Whale sharks are the gentlest ones they are herbivores and don't eat humans. (Unlike stupid carnivore sharks: great whites and regular ones).
