Holy Shark - Baldwin County NOW

Holy Shark - Baldwin County NOW - A Gulf Coast Information Source for South Alabama: "GULF SHORES, Ala. — What is 40 feet long, several tons heavy, and can be seen along the Gulf Coast?

For dive instructor Shane Anderson, it was something he has not seen in 16 years of scuba diving. But the 11-year veteran of the Down Under Dive Shop in Gulf Shores recently came face to face with a Rhincodon typus, better knows as a whale shark.

Over the past several weeks, there have been reports of whale shark sightings, but Anderson and a number of other local divers recently spotted two different whale sharks in the same week."
