RE: No Wonder The Sea Is Salty.........
It's a whale shark. Notice the gills just in front of the fin, and the squared off snout and eyes almost at the edge of the mouth as well as the markings on the skin/scales. Frankly I don't think that's its plonker, cuz as far as I know, sharks don't really do that sort of thing. The females lay eggs, and the males give them a spray, and then they're on their way.
Kinda sad, cuz the big fish, and the whales are getting mighty rare these days. As far as I know there are less than three hundred blue whales left on the planet, and some fuckers are still out hunting them.
