These Fishermen Are Helping Whale Sharks Thrive | 4K UHD | Seven Worlds One Planet | BBC Earth

Video Overview & Insights

At almost 20 meters long, the whale shark is the largest fish in the world and, to the fishermen in the Southern Asian seas, one of the most prized in the ocean - but not because they want to catch it.

Allah, there is no god except He, the Living, the Everlasting. Neither slumber overtakes Him, nor sleep. To Him belongs whatsoever is in the heavens and whatsoever is on earth. Who is there who can intercede with Him without His permission? He knows what is ahead of them, and what is behind them; and they cannot grasp any of His Knowledge, except as He wills. His Throne extends over the heavens and the earth, and their preservation does not burden Him. He is the Most-High, the Tremendous.

Quran 2:255

As much as I appreciate this, is it sustainable? What is the guarantee these people will always be available? And also they may need funding to keep this activity going on.
