Divers Rescue A Tangled Whale Shark
Last week, divers off the coast of Mexico came across a gentle whale shark who had been tangled in a thick rope around its fins and body. Swim free, big guy!
I know, right? Now tell your friends!

Update: reader Summer wrote in and told us her mother was along with the dive team (in a boat above), and that the shark was pregnant!

summers6 6 months agoMy mother was hoping this would go viral so something could be done to protect these incredible creatures. You can see that rope was on a long time. If we can save one, we can save a lot more. She told me about this experience while traveling back home and I love that it had made it to my favorite website.
