Whale sharks heal very quickly

Fins that grow back, wounds that heal. A scientific study recently published in the journal Conservation Physiology proves the great healing capacity of whale sharks. Scientists have demonstrated an "extraordinary" rate of healing in these fish. Wounds can heal in 20 days. Encouraging signs given the human threats to the species.
