Nature, as seen in a format modern man can understand: Like a wide screen tv. And while we watch tv... Cue the music: 'Please Don't Go...'

You're a half-wit. Learn to tell the truth....and learn to spell while you're at it. Idiot.

That is amazing but i'm sad to see that Japan still hasnt learnt. You can see several adolescent Whale Sharks througout, fully grown Whale Sharks, like many large fish, have yet to be kept succesfully in captivity. They all die, some quite quickly. Japan has a horrible record on animal rights.
