BABY WHALE SHARK WASHED UP This monster one-ton whale shark dwarfs startled locals after being found washed up dead on rocks in Fuzhou City, China. The four metre long shark is harmless to humans and is tiny compared to others of his kind. The shark, which is thought to be a baby, will undergo tests to determine how it perished. Whale sharks are the largest fish in the world – they can measure more than 12 metres in length and weigh up to 14 tonnes. (AV/WN/ZN)** **
