Yep, That’s Shark Poo…

Shark poo has been caught on camera for what is thought to be the first time. A crew managed to record the whale shark (the world’s biggest fish) doing it’s business, and then scooped some up for research.

Biologist Mark Meekan calls the stuff “scientific gold” saying, “one way to work out what is going in one end is to look at what is coming out of the other.”

R.I.P. Norton

Norton, one of the original whale sharks on exhibit at the Georgia Aquarium, died yesterday. He was the second whale shark to die at the facility in the past five months. R.I.P Norton!
