Super User Raider Nation Fisher Posted December 31, 2011 Super User Posted December 31, 2011 That was awesome. Apparently Mr. Whale was not down with the shark hanging around. Quote
Global Moderator Bluebasser86 Posted December 31, 2011 Global Moderator Posted December 31, 2011 Orcas are very capable of taking out even large adult sharks. Sharks must keep moving to breath or they will drown so a pack of orcas will attack the shark by ramming it and biting off it's fins and tail. The shark usually dies from drowning or blood loss. I can't imagine seeing that in person. I think the reason it has to be so amazing is you see the shark that everyone thinks as the top of food chain, and the killer whale that probably makes most people think of "Free Willy" or Sea World, attacking and killing sharks, has to be a crazy thing to see go down.

Packard Posted January 1, 2012 Posted January 1, 2012 Orcas are aren't your average whale though. They are way nastier than sharks. I would rather be in a pool with a great white than an wild orca. Most of the orcas people see are the trained ones which are still known to kill. Quote

The thing I watched on whale vs. Shark they said how orcas will study it's prey to learn the best way to kill it's prey most available in there area. Quote
