The whale shark was so
named because of its size being as large as some species of whales and that
they have filter feeders as the baleen whale. Although there is no good
estimate of its global population it is considered endangered due to the need
for protection from some countries as China capturing and commercializing them.
We need to remember and respect the uniqueness of the whale shark especially
when we consider how many creatures are endangered. Please everyone if you are able to help
please act in donating to conservation organizations as the MafiaIsland Whale
Shark Conservation and the World Wildlife Fund which are dedicated to protecting
them so their population can be stabilized and negative impacts will be
controlled.
