Whale shark

Alternative names: Rhincodon typus

The whale sharks are the largest fish in the world. They live in warmer tropical waters around the Planet and are solitary creatures.
Although they have thousands of teeth, the whale sharks usually swallow their food rather than bite it. Sometimes they even swim with their mouth agape to passively swallow any food that might be in their path.
