A Basking Shark swims with its giant mouth open, feeding on plankton in the nutrient-rich waters off of Cape Cod, Massachusetts. The second largest fish in the sea - after whale sharks - this species can reach lengths of up to 30 feet long, weighing almost 5,000 pounds. Though these animals migrate and live throughout all of the world’s temperate oceans, they are listed as vulnerable with a trend of declining populations worldwide, often exploited commercially for their fins and oil. Basking Sharks are social creatures, often forming schools of around three or four (though sometimes larger), and they communicate through a series of social cues.
