From YouTube video: Whale shark near a coral reef in the Red Sea / Rhincodon typus / Кито́вая аку́ла. Ras Mohammed NP

Whale shark Rhincodon typus (Smith, 1828) Кито́вая аку́ла Whale shark The whale shark is one of the rarest creatures of our planet. Whale sharks inhabits low latitudes of the world ocean. Although the existence of 20-metre specimens has been confirmed, scientists seldom have the opportunity to come across such giants. Seeing these majestic creatures in the wild is great luck. This particular whale shark specimen was encountered by a group of divers (November 2019) in Ras Mohammed National Park in Egypt (the Red Sea not far from Sharm El Sheikh). This video was shared with us by experienced divers Margharita and Igor Petrenko. We sincerely thank them for being able to witness the moment of discovering this giant whale shark near a coral reef. Китовая акула Китовая акула – одно из самых редких животных нашей планеты. Китовая акула обитает в низких широтах мирового океана. Уже подтверждены экземпляры длиной 20 метров, и, тем не менее, в руки ученых такие особи попадают крайне редко. Встреча с этими гигантами в естественной среде обитания – большая удача. Данный экземпляр китовой акулы был встречен группой дайверов (ноябрь 2019) на территории национального парка Рас-Мохаммед в Египте (Красное море, окрестности Шарм-эль-Шейха). Видео предоставлено дайверами со стажем – Маргаритой и Игорем Петренко. Благодаря им вы можете пережить моменты встречи с гигантской китовой акулой возле кораллового рифа.
