Unlike some other sharks, the basking shark is no threat to humans. Growing to a size much larger than that of the average human, this giant fish simply ignores divers swim up to it. The diet of a basking shark consists fish and small animals such as squid, shrimp, and crabs. When it is hungry, it places where great numbers of these small animals can be found. Once it locates area crowded with fish, a basking shark simply opens its huge mouth and slowly swims through it. Water flows into its mouth and continues out through a special filter structure that traps the small fish and other creatures. this method of eating does not require the shark to move quickly, it still requires a lot of effort. To obtain enough food, a basking shark will filter up to two thousand tons of water per hour.

Most people have heard the story of the lost city of Atlantis. But is any part of the story true?
Over two thousand years ago, the Greek writer Plato wrote about Atlantis, an island in the Atlantic Ocean. The island’s people were very rich. They built a big city with many great buildings. But the people became greedy-they had many things, but they still wanted more. So the gods became angry. Earthquakes and large waves began to strike the island. Finally, Atlantis sank into the sea.
Many explorers have looked for Atlantis. In 2004, explorer Robert Sarmast reported finding the remains of a city under the sea near Cyprus. However, Sarmast and other scientists later realized the structures he found under the sea were natural, not man-made. Mark Adams, author of the 2016 book Meet Me in Atlantis believes the city was in Morocco. Plato wrote about red and black stone circles around the city. Adams found similar red and black stones in the desert there, very near the Atlantic Ocean.
Most people, however, think Atlantis is simply a story. The purpose of the story may be to teach people not to be greedy. Richard Ellis also wrote a book about Atlantis in 1999. He says “there is not a piece of solid evidence” for a real Atlantis. So was the island real or not? We only know one thing: The mystery of Atlantis will be with us for a long time.
