How do you take your breakfast? _ Watching these guys eat is insane. Although the water looks fairly clear here, it's thick and nearly murky with plankton. The whale sharks swim along the surface and when they find a good spot to feed, their giant bodies drop down and their wide months open up to the surface. They swing back and forth, sucking water (and plankton) in with significance force! If you look closely, you can see how the water is funneling down this guys throat. Deeeeeelish. _ Lucky for us, he didn't mind visitors while he ate 😄 _ #whaleshark #love #exploremore #bigfishfriends #respect #fromcurrytosalsa #underthesea @spl_waterhousing
