The Whale Shark (Rhincodon typus), despite it's name, is only a shark, not a whale, and is in fact the largest non-whale animal! With a beautiful polka-dot pattern and wide mouth for filter feeding, it's a true gentle giant of the seas and is beloved by scuba divers, marine biologists, and ocean fans worldwide.

This bookmark is 6 inches long x 2.4 inches wide. Bookmarks are printed on premium double-layered heavy cardstock (approx. 140 lb/380 gsm). Bookmarks come with an attached satin tassel.

Bookmark photographed with "The Modern Bestiary" by Joanna Bagniewska. Please note that the book is not included with purchase (though I highly recommend finding it at your local bookseller, it's great!).
