ATLANTA (AP) — This year, Shark Week on the Discovery Channel will be close to home for Georgians.
The Georgia Aquarium — the world’s largest fish tank — is providing a live “shark cam” and other online video content for Shark Week, which starts Sunday. The shark cam will be in the aquarium’s 6 million gallon Ocean Voyager tank, housing eight species of sharks.
The exhibit is home to four whale sharks, the world’s largest fish, which can grow up to 40 feet long. Other species include hammerhead, tiger and zebra sharks.
In addition, biologists from the aquarium will participate in live online chat sessions next week to answer viewers’ questions.
