Whale Shark

The Whale Shark is a tier 10 animal.

Mechanics

Hammerheads evolve into whale sharks.
- 48,000 XP is required for a hammerhead to evolve into a whale shark.
Whale Sharks do not evolve into any other animals, as they are one of the latest animals.
Whale Sharks drop meat upon death.
As a whale shark, friendly fire is turned off for all tier 1 animals: meaning you cannot damage them nor be damaged by them.

Clicking and holding down will cause your remoras to follow and attack the nearest animal that you do not have friendly fire turned off for.
- Remoras prioritize who to attack based on the following order, from highest priority to lowest:
  - They will attack the last animal who attacked you in the last 5 seconds.
  - They will attack the last animal you attacked in the last 5 seconds.
  - They will attack the closest animal to you.

Your active ability replaces your ability to boost, meaning you cannot boost forward.

This is a complete list of food that whale sharks can eat.

Name	Can be eaten by	XP	Description
Barb	All except for the stonefish who spawned it	0	Spawns behind a stonefish using their active ability. Deals damage upon eating it (7% of max life). Poisons anyone who eats it with a base DPS of 10% that lasts 5 seconds (except poison-immune animals). Despawns after 4 seconds.
Bird Poop	All except for lamprey and seagull	10	Affected by gravity. Automatically spawns below any seagull every 10 seconds.
Plankton	All	25	Spawns in the ocean.
Ice	All	50	Spawns in the arctic and deeeep.
Volcano Food	All except lamprey	125	Affected by gravity, floats upwards. Spawns out of volcanoes, which can be hidden in and are located in the arctic and the deeeep. When eaten as an animal that is not suited to the arctic, it will replenish some of your temperature.
Person	Tier 9 to tier 10 except sunfish and stonefish	300	Spawns just above the water. Does not spawn in the arctic.
Flappy Duck	Ray to tier 10	675	Spawns in a horizontal line just below the height limit.
Meat	All	1000	Spawns where an animal dies (tier 2 to tier 10 animals only). The amount of meat that spawns depends on what animal it was.

Whale Sharks cannot hide anywhere as they are a tier 10 animal.
