    Whale sharks are the largest fish in the world that we know of. Although they are sharks they mainly feed on plankton. It's good that they didn't actually kill it and just found it dead although that means it probably won't be sold for eating. Also the water there seems kinda nasty and I wouldn't want to eat anything out of it anyway.

    Yeah, this haha. They just eat planktons and junk.

    Even if it did eat you, it wouldn't want it as much as you didn't.
