Happy International Whale Shark Day! Australia’s Ningaloo Reef is well-know for being home to the largest fish species the planet. Did you know that Whale Sharks can also be found on the Great Barrier Reef and the Coral Sea? Osprey Reef never fails to surprise Mike Ball Dive Expeditionsl guests and the crew! Shout out to Dr Adam Barnet who has been studing this important species using Reef Tracks with Citizens of the Great Barrier Reef. https://citizensgbr.org/explore/reef-tracks If you are lucky enough to meet of these gentle giants. The best way to report a siting is using Eye on the Reef sitings network or the App.http://www.gbrmpa.gov.au/sightings-network/ Their spotted pattern is like our fingerprint. In order to identify the individual shark, take a clear picture of the left pectoral fin, and send it to https://www.sharkbook.ai/photographing.jsp @masterreefguides @queensland @qldparks @tropicalnorthqueensland @gbrmarinepark @australia @parley.tv #thisisqueensland #lovethereef #whaleshark #sharkweek #whalesharks #shark #ocean #greatwhiteshark #pablocogollos #sharks #underwater #sharklover #sharkdiving #whales #whale #sharkconservation #diving #underwaterphotography #sharkclub #whaleseason #whalelove #sea #travel #nature #worldwhalesharkday #internationalwhalesharkday
