Underwater Creatures

We swam with whale sharks in Western Australia!

Whale sharks are the largest sharks, growing to 50 feet!

Whale sharks are harmless. They don't even have teeth!

Hammerhead sharks in the Galapagos Islands.

White tip reef sharks are not friendly.

We watched a shark feeding. After they were fed, we could come in close and take pictures.
