It looks a bit small. Apparently they are becoming endangered becasue they attract a lot of tourists to swim with them so Philippinos have been feeding them around west of cebu island near moaboal ato keep them in the area so they don't finish their migration to the breeding grounds and are not breeding so much

theyre small because theyre starving to death from ingested plastics that block their digestive systems

like all other wildlife on this planet, just hanging on but destined for human caused mass extinction
