Offshore orcas live out in the deep waters of the North Pacific where studying them is challenging. Necropsies on killer whale carcasses provided the first clues that these orcas preyed on sharks. This was confirmed when a group of researchers encountered a pod of offshore killer whales near the islands of Haida Gwaii. Chunks of tissue began rising to the surface along with a sheen of oil. Researchers collected as many samples as they could and found the tissue and oil came from shark livers. Specifically, the livers of Pacific sleeper sharks.
On the other side of the world, a pod of killer whales showed up in False Bay, South Africa. Up until 2015, False Bay was known for its large population of great white sharks who were world famous for attacking fur seals with enough force and explosive energy to throw their entire bodies out of the water. Until the killer whales showed up. Specifically, two half-brothers named Port and Starboard. Shortly after these two orcas appeared, great white sharks began washing ashore with their livers seemingly surgically removed.

    The WHOLE idea of a ,,ecosystem'' and ,,natural order'' and ,,smart nature'' is a LIE. TOTAL LIE and human construct, that DON'T EXIST in reality. Nature is totally anarchistic, CRUEL, 99 percent of ALL species DIE OUT without even humans existed, so the ,,logic'' behind all those enviromental eco geniuses is totally FALSE. If humans wipe out great white sharks or orcas NOTHING bad will happen, just like humans wipe out wolfs from Europe and nothing bad happen.

  • @johnjager637
    @johnjager637 Před 4 hodinami

    Greetings from Cape town, great episode, thank you. One small correction, at 4.55 that was not Starboard that killed the Great White. You can see that Orca does not have a collapsed dorsal fin. Up to that point the local experts thought it was only Port and Starboard killing Great Whites but that footage, filmed a few hundred kilometers east of False Bay at Mossel Bay, was the first time they saw that other Orcas in the area killed Great Whites as well.

    Hey @KPassionate, orcas have been seen killing great white sharks since the 1990’s. A female orca from the CA pod was filmed carrying a great white shark and I think it made the news. They even have a documentary about it called “The whale that ate Jaws”. I think the CA pod are Biggs Killer whales? You would know better than me I think. Look up the whale that ate jaws, it is on CZcams as well……

    • @KPassionate
      @KPassionate Před 5 hodinami

      Yes. That is likely. But this is the first documented case of a single whale killing a white shark. Documented doesn’t necessarily mean first to ever happen. Just first we have actual proof of.

  • @mohamedelamrani6378
    @mohamedelamrani6378 Před 5 hodinami

    FYI : it is indeed known that the great white shark has only 1 predator which is the orca, but only before reaching maturity. The problem here, is that the shark's body reaches maturity after a minimum of 2 decades, which is why most of the great white sharks that get hunted by orcas feel like easy prey. Once a great white shark reaches maturity, the body becomes huge (5 meters minimum) while the sharks that have been attacked by orcas are about 2.5 meters or 3.5 meters at best. An experiment was conducted recently when the scientists displayed the sound made by orcas that have been known to feed on great white sharks on an area full of great white sharks. Most of them ran away, but not all of them. The great white sharks that didn't react to the orcas sound were 4.5 meters minimum. ( 3 of them, one said to be 5.3 meters) It means that older great white sharks are not food for orcas, even if it means that they have a bigger liver due to having bigger bodies. Orcas are like tigers, they feed on what is easy for them to kill. They will never go 1 on 1 against a 5 meters great white shark, it would be too dangerous because the mass is definitely not the same as a 2.5 meters
