it is born alive. However, the whale shark exhibits ovovivipary meaning that they produce eggs, but these eggs hatch inside the mother who then gives live birth. This is different from vivipary in mammals because this is the development of an embryo with a placenta. Ovoviviparous birth lacks a placenta (ie nourishment from mom)
