Which is the largest known extant fish species?

Whale sharks are found at the Ningaloo reef on the West Coast of Australia. People go swimming with them. Gentle giants.

AllThingsMadeNew, Vey far from a whale!!!

We saw them in Mexico & they gently swam under our small boat & by the side of us. Amazing to see & swim with.

AllThingsMadeNew, auu'contrail it is a well bred golden whale shark. Very rare as whale sharks go.

Note: The corresponding picture is NOT a whale shark. :)

poor little fishes!!
