Basking shark
The
basking shark (Cetorhinus maximus) is the second largest living fish,
after the whale shark, and the second of three plankton-eating sharks,
the other two being the whale shark and megamouth shark. It is a
cosmopolitan migratory species, found in all the world's temperate
oceans. It is a slow moving and generally harmless filter feeder and has
anatomical adaptations to filter feeding, such as a greatly enlarged
mouth and highly developed gill rakers.
