Whale Shark Research in Indonesia 

For the first time ever, scientists successfully performed health assessments, including collecting blood and biological samples, taking measurements and attaching satellite tracking tags, to a population of wild whale sharks - the world’s largest fish, classified as “endangered” since 2016. The research advancement, which occurred in Indonesia’s remote Cendrawasih Bay, has significant implications for unlocking the mysteries surrounding the overall health of whale sharks.
This expedition is the result of an international collaboration between Georgia Aquarium, Conservation International (CI) and the Indonesian government that brings together critical skillsets from each of the partners.
