These gentle, gargantuan-jawed giants have hundreds of small teeth
in their cavernous kisser, but unlike most other sharks, they don't use them for feeding. Instead, basking sharks
use their large mouths and highly developed gill breakers to assist in filter feeding as they appear to... maybe you guessed it by their name... bask in the sun near the surface of the ocean. - Guuuuh!
- Just don't trust them with your secrets, because they obviously have really big... issues with keeping their mouths shut. I mean, I got totally burned once... Mother Nature
has a tattoo of Weird Al. Guh!
