Mad as a Marine Biologist

sallysnowglobe:

Nearly getting eaten by a Whale Shark in Oslob…all in a days work!  

So I turn up to Oslob to take over this project, and I find two of my volunteers are fellow tumblrita’s. One of whom (diving-dork) I was already following and her me! Exciting tumblr-loving-times. 

I digress. Sally, of above reblog, has worked with the WWF whale shark project in Donsol and is an aspiring nature/conservation videographer. Armed with her GoPro she filmed some of the craziness. This is Bender mistaking Sally for some plankton. Om nom nom.

Looks adorable, but when you realise you could fit in their mouth, the cute turns into formidable and you can be forgiven for screaming (ahem, Sally). 

NB. This was taken with a wide-angle lens. So it was A LOT closer than it appears.
