Звездное Небо | Night Sky
У китовых акул много красивых имен. В Мексике их называют «домино». На Мадагаскаре - «марокинтана», много звёзд. А в восточной Африке - «папа шилинги», акула усыпанная монетами (на суахили «папа» означает акула, а «шилинги» - шиллинги или монеты). Согласно легенде, Бог был так доволен собой когда создал этих гигантских рыб, что приказал ангелам бросить горсть серебряных и золотых монет на их спины. С тех пор они плавают у поверхности, пуская солнечные зайчики в небеса своими спинами, как знак благодарности Создателю.

Around the world, people have given whale sharks many beautiful names. In Mexico they are called "domino". On Madagasar - "marokintana", many stars. And in East Africa - "papa shilingi", shark covered in shillings. According to a local legend, God was so pleased when he created this giant fish that he ordered his angels to throw down handfuls of gold and silver coins onto its back. Ever since, the whale sharks swim near the surface catching the sun and reflecting it back to heavens with their magical markings as a way of saying thank you to their Maker.
