International Whale Shark Day

International Whale Shark Day

It's International Whale Shark Day!⁠⁠
⁠⁠
Did you know that whale sharks have teeth on their EYES? Like most sharks they're covered in a rough skin that feels like sandpaper and looks like scales but they're actually dermal denticles which are tiny teeth! They're there to protect the whale sharks eyes.⁠⁠

Creepy or cool?⁠⁠
