Coral exists in many forms, many textures and many colors. Coral is not a plant but an animal, rather a set of animals in fact. Coral is indeed a set of polyps (same family as jellyfish) ;).
The kakihona sushi (sushi wrapped in persimmon leaves) are really the best!
To eat them, you have to go to Nara!
The whale shark is the largest fish in the world!
Some whales are larger, but they are mammals, not fish!
Some sharks can stay motionless on the sand (white tips reef sharks, nurse sharks, etc.).
These sharks don't have to swim to bring oxygen to their gills like other sharks (grey, hammerheads tc.)
