WATCH: The Beautiful Endangered Whale Shark Has Been Having A Whale Of A Time In Abu Dhabi Waters
Abu Dhabi’s new resident whale shark has been having a great time, frolicking in the capital’s waterways, and closing beaches.
The endangered species has been spotted at Abu Dhabi’s Corniche Beach, among others, causing the beach to be closed over the weekend – for the fish and the public’s safety.
He’s just a gentle giant though, and feeds on plankton – and is all kinds of chill.
He’s having a whale of a time!
