Orcas And Great White Sharks (Not for the squeamish)

[ZackyDog]

Orcas are social, clever and sometimes---brutal creatures.

Orca pair rip open great white sharks to feast on their livers and hearts

Two killer whales have been killing Great White sharks off the coast of South Africa, causing the sharks to avoid their regular territory.

My daughter's sister in law is a marine biologist working with great whites in that area.

She has many gruesome stories to tell

When called an apex predator - they've nailed it.

I mean, chasing down a great white to eat his liver!

Bad azz is, as bad azz does.

 

[Killing Floor]

Or plan B is they could just starve and not be apex predators.

Being the exact same latitude as Cape Town we get our share of great whites here too.

 

[Clive Hugh]

They have been observed doing that of the Western Australian coast too.

Truly amazing.
Just living their lives.

Did I miss the squeamish part…

I'm not suggesting that they should starve. I/we know what comes natural to them. There's no need for that comment. I/we know that nature can be unforgiving.

Is there any chance at all that they might become Vegans?

Did they have fava beans and a nice Chianti?

A vegan orca would be like a mojoless telecaster : doomed to disappear...

Nature is amazing. I love sharks, whites in particular. I was supposed to do a cage dive off Gaansbai years ago but a big storm came in the day we had driven down from Capetown.

Vegan's all across the land will be devastated to learn this.

I am personally too squeamish to eat a GWS's liver

 

[nickmm]

I think some Ocra's are like people.

 

[wabashslim]

Damn nature - you scary!

Do share!

Orca's are evil IMO. I'm on team seal and team shark. Not a fan of those panda looking psychopaths.

 

[nickmm]

For some reason I think Seth needs to do one on Orcas.

My mom always told me not to play with food!
