Today, August 30, Dolphin Cove celebrates International Whale Shark Day! Whale sharks are large filter feeders (which means they filter their prey (plankton) through baleen) and can grow to be over 40 feet long. They also happen to be our occasional neighbors here in the Florida Keys, as you can see in this video taken just seven days ago (a rare glimpse of a whale shark in shallow water, as they usually frequent deeper areas in the open ocean). youtu.be/UX23O0cZla4 For more information and other incredible whale shark videos, check out arkive.org/whale-shark.
