Additional comments:
I do not have the actual coordinates or local site name as it was somewhere in the vicinity of Derawan waters (an hour away from Sangalaki Island in East Kalimantan).

I'm hoping the attached photos of these 2 whalesharks (approx. 6-7m) do show up in your database and/or submitted by other encounter reports.
