That's a whale shark, the largest sea mammal that has ever existed. They're amazing. And can you believe that they get that big only by eating the smallest of salads (krill, it's tiny sea vegetation). They're absolutely amazing.

I think you meant largest fish. I've posted this before, but we swam with one near Cabo San Lucas. They spot the shark near the surface, quick drive the boat in front of it, 2-3 people plus the guide jump off the boat in front of it, you watch it come and then swim like hell to keep up as much as possible.

This is my wife who has always loved sharks.

Duh, it's smooth as a shark. Which as we all know is the smoothest.

They also call krill sea vegetation. Don't fall for the (nice and harmless) troll, people.

I mean, some sharks lay eggs, which leads me to believe that sharks are in fact birds.

Sharks cannot be fish, because as we have learned, there is no such thing as a fish.

Milo and POTUS: Sep 3, 2017; I will not shut up about the Mighty Morphin Power Rangers. I talk about them all the time and work them into every conversation I have. I built a shrine in my room for the yellow one who died because sadly no one noticed because she died around 9/11. Wanna see it?

That's where my money is, too.

It falls down because: under what circumstances would we consider the animals to have "said" nonsense? You can ascribe meaning to just about any random combination of button pushes. And for the ones you can't, it's "oh, you're being silly! Good joke!". That's exactly what happened with Koko the gorilla.

And then, how do you know that the animal actually wanted the particular thing you did? How do you know they're not just happy to eat food when they actually wanted cuddles? What about more abstract concepts? If they step on "pets" "later", how do you know that, if you pet them later, whether or not they connect it with the earlier event?

And are you writing it all down? All the times you or the animal presses a button and what you or the animal do in response? Or are you only recording and uploading to YouTube the highlights which clearly illustrate that you've trained the animal (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Confirmation_bias)?

I, for one, think you are full of poo poo.
