Fishermen in Pakistan reeled in a massive 40-foot whale shark

Pakistani fishermen fishing in the Arabian Sea caught a 40-foot long shark on Tuesday.

Some reports say it took three cranes, while others say it took five, to bring the eight-ton shark out of the water in the Pakistani city of Karachi.

The fishermen spotted the whale shark floating about 90 miles from shore about 10 days ago.

It’s been reported that the men sold the shark on Tuesday for a little over $18,000
