Whale sharks are very large organisms. Though, they feed on one of the smallest organisms, krill. Krill eat plankton, which is what gives them energy.Then, Whale sharks eat the krill for their energy. They then use this energy by simply swimming.Though this seems easy to do, a Whale shark is much larger and uses a lot more energy to swim than we, humans, do.
