The megamouth shark is a shark very rare and the only species of the megachasmidaes family.
It is characterized by its large mouth, hence its name, his nose flat, her brown on its back and white on its belly and baleen. It is about more than 4 meters and a weight of 750 kg.
His diet is very similar to the feeding whale shark and the basking shark, feeding on plankton, and small organisms crvettes filtering them in his big mouth. It is therefore not dangerous to humans.
In Atlantic to Hawaii and the Philippines, some species have been found. This is a particularly rare shark because the number of these sharks have been fished is 41.
