adaptations
Since the Inner Sea had grown in size, due to the East Sea completely closing, the Sea had ended up becoming overpopulated with many other marine species. Thus making the whale grow legs and arms to be able to crawl on land. The shark now has a somewhat appearance of a Newt, such as the Axolotl. A fairly large Newt.
With the addition of new predators, the Whale Sharks must do something to protect themselves. There have been sightings of these whale sharks with protruding canine teeth. For a physical description of such tooth, refer to Narwhals. These sharks have only been found on land, so marine animals are safe from their grasps.

Wings. These Marine Animals have developed wings, but are not land animals. Refer to the flying fish, yes its an actual type of fish. The grown wings have come to serve as a somewhat escape method. Due to the Shark’s heavy weigh, the shark can only fly for a few seconds every so often. It always takes more than a few seconds to escape.
Thicker skin. These Whales are prey to the most elite predators in the ocean. Sharks, Killer whales, while humans aren’t marine animals, they’re also elite predators. These sharks are only predators to the smallest of organisms such as; crustaceans, krill, plankton, and small fish. They need protection from their PREDATORS and not their PREYS. So thicker skin is made for defense.

summary
In the evolutionary ways of the Whale Shark, they go hard. Around the time of Five million years ago, the Rhincodon typus population beings to split into two adaptions. The Rhincodon marindus soon dies off after two and a half million years. The Rhincodon landus lives to this day, though they are very endangered. The population of the species stay constant all until they reach the more current years, such as about four million years.
The speciation event was caused by the sudden expansion of the Inner Sea. The two subspecies are set apart by the area they live in. The Rhincodon marinus lives in Marine biomes and have wings along with a thicker skin. The Rhincodon landus lives on land biomes, this subspecies has a protruding canine tooth and limbs for crawling on land.
The subspecies was getting closer to extinction. Natural selection caused this species to adapt to its environment. The adaptations that this subspecies went through were growing wings and gaining a thicker skin. The thicker skin caused the shark to gain another ton in weight. The wings were too weak to carry the weight of the shark for long periods of time. Thus, causing a low survival rate, in other words extinction, in the subspecies Rhincodon marinus.
The subspecies was the successful one of the two. Natural selection caused this species to adapt to its environment. The adaptations that this subspecies went through were growing an ingrown canine and limbs. The limbs were thick enough to let the animals run and push off predators. The canine is used to pierce the hearts of the mightiest of predators. Its made to spill the blood of its enemies. Thus, causing survival rates to increase rapidly in the subspecies. Live long and prosper, Rhincodon landus.
