Yang sebenarnya, ikan yang berupa persis
ikan keli ini ialah Whale Shark – Rhincodon typus atau dalam bahasa
melayunya Ikan Yu Paus yang banyak didapati di perairan Laut China
Selatan. Dari wikipedia, “The whale sharkis a slow-moving filter
feeding shark and the largest known extant fish species. The largest
confirmed individual had a length of 12.65 m and a weight of more than
21.5 metric tons , and unconfirmed reports of considerably larger whale
sharks exist. Claims of individuals over 14 m long and weighing at least
30 tonne are not uncommon. The whale shark holds many records for sheer
size in the animal kingdom, most notably being by far the largest
living nonmammalian vertebrate, rivalling many of the largest dinosaurs
in weight. It is the sole member of the genus Rhincodon and the family,
Rhincodontidae (called Rhiniodon and Rhinodontidae before 1984), which
belongs to the subclass Elasmobranchii in the class Chondrichthyes. The
species originated about 60 million years ago.“
