its definately a whale shark...
My father was in the army with a guy that went on fishing trips somewhere in europe, germany or france i believe, and he said those big cats put up a fight that can rival a big tuna or marlin anyday

Why does it say
people-eating-fish-was-shot-in-china in the URL for that page? Last time I checked even adult WC's were gentle and did not eat people. GAH! :wall:

I agree with the people who say its a whale shark. Looks like a small version of the one at the Georgia aquarium.
