English term or phrase: Ram feeding
In a popular science document on sharks, here specificlly about the whale shark:
"The whale shark can feed by swimming forward with its mouth open so water and food flow inside. This is known as ram feeding."

Despite extensive research, I haven't found a convincing equivalent to "ram feeding". Any hints or suggestions are welcome.

китово хранене


Explanation:
Аз бих нарекъл това „китово хранене". Китовата акула се нарича така не само защото е голяма, но също така защото се храни подобно на баленовите китове с планктон, като филтрира водата и планктонът остава в устата ѝ.

Asker: Благодаря. Описанието е интересно, но този начин на хранене не е характерен само за китовата акула. Вж. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aquatic_feeding_mechanisms
