I figured it was a bit hyperbolic, but they seriously sploded them. I have to wonder sometimes how these behaviors first get discovered, from the orca perspective that is.
“A thousand pieces” is NOT an exaggeration, that shit DETONATED
Orca SLAMS Sunfish
Ayres and colleagues have dubbed this new behavior “ram-to-fragment.”
That’s my band’s name
After the sunfish has shattered, the orcas frolic in and feed on the fragments of its flesh.
Metal AF
Oh, i thought the title was clickbait, but it really is not. Poor sunfish, but i guess such is life if you’re not an apex predator.
Sunfish are about as far from being apex predators as you can get. Insert copypasta here
It somehow makes it feel a bit better knowing that the fish are apparently already dead.
They are ocean sunfish though, if there was ever a creature to dunk on it’s absolutely them.
Not all sea critters are so “kind”
Well, the seal’s bot exploding it. Orcas just chow down on those floating snack pods too.
If it helps their brain is the size of a walnut and they probably didn’t feel any pain.
