Welcome to part two of the training course.

Overview
In this section, participants will learn about the biology and life of Whale Sharks. As Whale Sharks are very mysterious creatures, we have very little information about some aspects of their lives. This section aims to teach all we do know, so that guides can pass their knowledge on to tourists.
There is also a 'Whale Shark Facts' poster that can be downloaded and displayed in the classroom.
