swimming with wale sharks in OSLOB, PHILIPPINES
Breathtaking. I took this picture yesterday when I had the extraordinary chance to swim with these up to 13 meter long creatures. The whale shark is a filter-feeding carpet shark and the largest known extant fish species.
I will create a post about this amazing experience in the following days :)
Atemberaubend. Ich habe dieses Bild gestern gemacht, als ich die außergewöhnliche Chance hatte, mit diesen bis zu 13 Meter langen Kreaturen zu schwimmen. Der Walhai ist der größte Hai und zugleich der größte Fisch der Gegenwart.
Ich werde in den nächsten Tagen einen Post über dieses außergewöhnliche Erlebnis schreiben :)

Love it! But I say hell no when it comes to swimming with such large beasts!
haha yes I was kind of shocked when I saw how huge they are but actually they are harmless. The wale shark is a filter feeder and feeds on plankton including copepods, krill, fish eggs, Christmas Island red crab larvae and small nektonic life, such as small squid or fish - no humans hehe
The thing is I don't even like small fish touching me in the water. LOL Forget about swimming with gentle giants!
Beautiful create, looking forward to your post about the experience!
thank you :)
wow finally you were there!
