Which shark can grow the largest?

Quick Answer

The whale shark is the largest shark species. It is not a whale, but a shark that can exceed 12 metres in length.

The Full Story

The whale shark is the biggest shark species in the world. It can grow longer than many buses, often reaching around 12 metres, and very large individuals may be larger. Unlike many famous sharks, it does not hunt large prey. Instead, it filters plankton, tiny fish, and eggs from the water. Its enormous size and gentle feeding style make it one of the most unusual sharks in the ocean.
