The largest fish in the world, the whale shark, faces many challenges in the ocean. These endangered gentle giants are filter feeders, eating tiny marine organisms like krill and other plankton. Entanglement in fishing nets, boat strikes and ingestion of marine debris and microplastics pose a significant danger to these enormous sharks. Georgia Aquarium is at the forefront of the research and conservation of whale sharks at the Aquarium and in the ocean, building the scientific community’s knowledge of this species. The whale sharks at Georgia Aquarium in Atlanta inspire millions of visitors each year to create personal connections with whale sharks. In turn, this furthers the awareness and conservation of whale sharks in the ocean!

Sizing Completely Off

"The socks themselves are great quality. They are thick and soft. Plus the patterns are adorable. That said, the sizing on the website is completely off. I purchased youth socks for my kids in size 1 and 3 shoes, but these socks fit ME as an adult wearing size 8 womens shoes. I also purchased the preschool socks for my son in size 9 shoes. I should have sized down for all three of my children. I realize they'll eventually fit, but because I purchased patterns they would enjoy now, it's a big disappointment at an expensive price."

Hugh Quality with conservation in mind!

"We love the tread for our great grandson and the support at thickness of the socks. He dearly loves the animals on the socks! An added bonus is that part of the proceeds goes toward protecting wildlife, livestock and all animals and national parks. Well worth the investment!"
