@WhaleSharkRocky @OCEARCH @BiopixelTV @simonpierce I meant to respond earlier. I will be getting the chance to swim with a whale shark coming May. My husband and I will visit Australia for 25 days. We will swim with the Whale Sharks at the end of May in Exmouth. I am so, so excited!!! How will I know which whale shark?

Holy moly. @MarineMegafauna describes the newly developed process for underwater ultrasound and blood collection from #endangered whale sharks. (Hint: it involves a waterproof ultrasound unit, a jetpack, and a MacGyver'ed double syringe.)
