The whale shark is basically a massive fish that swims around with a mouth like a giant vacuum cleaner. It’s like nature’s oversized minnow, decked out in a polka-dotted suit. Imagine a school bus that decided to take a dive in the ocean, but instead of wheels, it has fins that flap awkwardly. It munches on tiny jellybeans of the sea, which are really just plankton, and it moves super slow, like your friend who takes forever to get ready. This gentle giant is so big that it could probably fit a couple of confused dolphins inside it, but it would rather just float around looking majestic and casual.
