A pair of killer whales or Orca, working together to slide 19 Sevengill wide nasal sharks. More scary, they only eat the heart and the remaining sharks into a carbuar on the Pearly Beach coast of South Africa.
As we quoted from Live Science, Alison Knock as the ocean biologist at the South African National Parks, analyzed the behavior of the two male killers, named Port and Starboard. To know, ORCA is one of the most popular animals on the planet. Although it is called the Pope, this animal is actually a dolphin.
Not the first time the two killers did the same. In 2017, they slammed white sharks. All the deadly sharks, except one, only eaten his heart and his body was left to rot.
In his chirping, Kock explained that they may initially learn from the experience of the first new species. So ORCA knows the location of the shark, they will remember it forever and become a more efficient hunter.
Over the heart of the shark is very berbi and has a lot of fat and vitamins. "ORCA may have learned that consuming a shark liver gives high energy and nutrition. Large liver and float to the surface of the shark when the shark is killed, making it easy to see and accessed by ORCA, compared to other organs," Show Kock.
Orca sometimes hunts the victim by pairing so that it can break the shark efficiently. "One orca interrupts sharks and another killing. This hunting strategy reduces high intelligence and social work," Kock added.
The ORCA can also use its large tail to slap and disable the shark or reverse it to cause tonic immobility. Tonic immobility occurs when the shark is overturned and into conditions such as a chance, and easily killed.
Kock says this kind of behavior has been documented worldwide, including in South America, North America, Australia, and new to the new. However, the ORCA attacks have recently become more common in South Africa.
Later, the fact is that so many dead sharks in the massacre of a killer in one day causing concern. "This is a huge amount for a day of hunting," Kock wrote.
