The gentle giant of the ocean, the Whale Shark (Rhincodon typus) is vulnerable to ship strikes, entanglement in fishing gear, and habitat degradation. Despite being the largest fish in the world, the Whale Shark filter-feeds on plankton and small fish, posing no threat to humans. Conservation efforts focus on establishing marine protected areas and promoting responsible tourism.
