Whale shark sightingsThe place has been one of the tourist spots in the province because of the frequent sightings of whale sharks (known as butanding in the local vernacular) in the coastal areas. The government has taken actions requesting concerned sectors to test whether the number of plankton, the whale shark's primary food source, was adequate for the species' sustenance. In 1997, whale sharks were sighted in the town of Donsol in Sorsogon. Their presence led to the town's receiving the moniker whale shark capital of the world.[1][2] References1. ^{{cite news|last1=Arguelles|first1=Mar S.|title=Butanding’ appearance excites Legazpi folk, execs|url=http://newsinfo.inquirer.net/579724/butanding-appearance-excites-legazpi-folk-execs|accessdate=2 February 2016|publisher=Philippine Daily Inquirer|date=22 February 2014}} {{List of Philippine seas}}{{BicolR-geo-stub}}2. ^{{cite news|last1=Arguelles|first1=MS|title=Mt.
