At #CITESCoP20, governments will consider giving whale sharks the highest level of protection.🦈
A potential milestone, but global protections for sharks & rays still have gaps.

✨️Whale Sharks are the LARGEST fish in the world, living up to 100 yrs. They're ecologically important to supporting healthier oceans.
Whale sharks are endangered. From the demand for shark meat & fins to indiscriminate capture in fishing gear, humans are pushing them to the brink. #WhaleSharkDay
We should have a Whale Shark emote for #whalesharkday I'm tired of using two emotes to get my point across. Whos in charge of making these emotes? I hope it aint microsoft

Today is International #WhaleSharkDay. I took the photo of these gorgeous creatures at one of my favorite places, Georgia Aquarium. Being with animals inspires me in so many ways-it's my #selfcare and gives me ideas as a writer for #picturebooks. What inspires you and/or your writing?
Moin zusammen!
Heute ist Tag des Walhais und wie so oft, wenn es tierisch wird, ist es ein trauriger Anlass.😢
Er wird gejagt, gegessen und zählt demzufolge auch zu den stark gefährdeten Arten. ☹️
So wunderbare Tiere.😍
Kommt besser durch den Tag als vermutlich mancher Walhai.
