<h2><strong>Whale shark leaves anglers amazed</strong></h2>

<p>In the video, a massive whale shark was seen approaching the boat and coming close enough to the anglers, which made it possible for them to touch it.</p>

<p>“I just touched a whale shark,” said D’Emilio, in the video. However, the massive sea creature appeared unfazed by the brief touch.</p>

<p>The video of the encounter with the whale shark was shared by the Australian Broadcasting Corporation on Facebook.&nbsp;</p>

<p>Even though they are big in size and have “more than 3,000 tiny teeth,” these sharks are filter feeders and are seen as harmless to humans.</p>
