Off the coast of South Africa, a small group of orcas with an apparent taste for shark liver have been taking out great white sharks since at least 2017. And, honestly, that’s not even the strangest thing killer whales have been up to lately.

Can you confirm if the art was done by an actual indigenous artist? This will make a different on whether i purchase and i couldn’t find artist info using the link. Thanks!
@@ACertainJustice Yes! Here is her bio! She is so great to work with. carmenredunante.com/bio
@@ACertainJustice I came here to ask the same question for the same reason. 👍
@@BizarreBeastsplease put this in the description or put it in the video, as knowing this was an indigenous made design is really really important
Kill them Great Whites, go get it Orcas!!!
It's official: Orcas have acquired the most powerful form of communication known to Earthborne life - Memes
I mean, you jest but-
Thought you were gunna say Hank Green
That is what the actual purpose of the literal definition of memes.
@@vyxxer ikr, it's literally the memetic process in action. And just like memes from foreign cultures, we can't understand what it means or why they're doing it
“Memes, the DNA of the shoal” - Shamu Monsoon
My dad worked at Sea World San Diego as a maintinence worker for three decades. He had to fix enclosures and other things at the park. His rule tho was to have animals off exhibit if he was doing work because he didnt want to be bothered (it happened once with penguins and he said they bugged him with their curiosity). So one day dad is working on the orca stadium enclosure and the orcas are supposed to be behind a gate in another tank.
Dad is standing outside where the audience can be fixing a sprinkler that shoots water at the audience. The orca team didnt leave a spotter even though dad said to. The trainer / handler usually should be present in case of an incident. Well, the orcas aren’t dumb and knew the pattern. So when dad was working he looked and saw one of the orcas LEAP OVER THE GATE. Did a free willy and got over that security measure into the stadium tank. Dad noped out of there as it made a bee line to him and told the trainers what happened. They didnt believe him but dad said it was true and had a good arguement about his safety. Keep in mind, this is years before blackfish.
Orcas are smart.
Smart - and - terrifying.
You should look up Tragically Hip's "New Orleans is Sinking - Killer Wale Tank". I think you'll enjoy the middle section.
Wow! Amazing story and really cute imagining a regular guy trying to work around curious penguins ❤
Orcas are extremely smart that is why they are the wolves of the sea.
Dang that would be beyond terrifying. Orcas are the most dangerous predators on the planet. And this shows why.
In the 1980s there was a trend in the Pacific Northwest where orcas would come up to small boats and rub their snout on the boat. It didn’t matter if the boat was underway or not, it simply had to be barnacle free. It later turned out that the orcas had some sort of parasite that they were getting rid of and boats were the easiest way to do it. I observed this behavior first hand when I sailed out of Friday Harbor on my 13 foot catboat and encountered a pod of eight orcas. Each one of the adults took turns rubbing their snouts against the bow of my boat, shaking the boat tremendously. It was simply terrifying. I dropped the sail early on to make the boat more stable and hung on for dear life. When the orcas were through, they came up to the boat and allowed themselves to be petted, as if they were trying to make amends for scaring me half to death. I’ve had one other experience with an orca doing the same thing but it was a lone male and by then I knew what to do and the experience was not as frightening. He also allowed himself to be petted afterwards. The behavior stopped by the 1990s. Orcas still approach boats, particularly sailboats, but the snout rubbing isn’t something they do anymore.
That's awesome! Im ftom the seattle area as well and have on kd those whale watching boats wnen my grandma came to town. Thought it was going to be lame be he the boat bassically to ours selfs and got to see the pod that comes up in the summer. They got so close to the boat i was on that when they came to check us out they were close enough for me to get sprayed by them blowing out air.
Orca went from "eat the fish" to "eat the rich" and I'm here for it 👏👏👏
but they didn’t.
Wait till they find out illegal alien boats have far weaker undersides and lots more tasty treats.
@@ppsaha1994Looks like you got triggered.
@@ColorblindBullpup🚨🚨🚨🚨what's wrong ⁉⁉⁉cant take a joke
@@korn6657 Its just a very unfunny joke that was made because they heard the word “yacht” and assume rich people. Most of the boats targeted are small sailing yachts aka sailboats that the orcas know can be disabled just by ripping the rudder off. One guy was just tryna go fishing. Ive noticed a trend that when people hear the word yacht they automatically think of those gigantic party yachts or like the bezos super yacht. The yachts being sunk are close to the size of the orcas themselves. Any average joe could save some money for a low end sailboat.
I LOVE that the Haida Tlingit Orca symbol was used in this! Native Alaskans have some of the most incredible art on earth. P.S. you’re looking so good Hank! Thanks for continuing to bless us with knowledge brotha!
As someone from Alaska, I couldn't agree more. I love to see our native art getting some more recognition.
I've never seen it before, but the art made me sign up for the pin collection and buy a t-shirt.
Yes Pacific Northwest Coast art is incredible.
The art style is called formline if anyone wants to see traditional designs, sadly there’s a massive amount of butchered appropriated designs made by tourists and non indigenous people with no respect to the culture or art.
Thank you for saying something! I was wondering what culture the art was from and came to the comments to find out 🤗
There is also at least one population of orcas off the coast of New Zealand that use the same flipping trick to catch and eat rays. Not only that, but in order to get the rays to reveal themselves and swim out from under the sand, the orcas will swim along the sea floor and blow bubbles to scare them.
The more you know 🌈
All I can say is, I'm really glad I'm not one of the species that they prey on
@@aether3885 yet, give them a few thousand years of evolution to get faster reproduction and some sort of land mobility, then the only thing capable of stopping orcas from becoming the new dominant species of our planet is literally a Godzilla(so, nothing in the realm of possible by the laws of nature haha)
We know that cetaceans are more interested in humans on boats if they're making a lot of noise. We also have reports that the orcas stopped attacking boats if the humans kept calm. My theory is that the orcas just think that humans running around and screaming are funny.
The og yacht rudder that was destroyed (iirc it was Portuguese?) followed a pod of Orcas trying to hunt. I'd be frustrated too if these weirdo two leggos in their weirdo hard shells made so much noise that I couldn't eat.
That has been proven to be false. Orcas have attacked many boats under sail that were obvioulsy quite silent . The official recommendation by the spanish authorities that was , shut off your engine and down your sails, only made orcas more aggressive towards the boats and has now been replaced with " start your engine and leave the area towards shallow waters as fast as you can"
@@refragerator ,sorry thats definitely not true. The whale whatcher crowd do that ,sailing yachts avoid Orcas, Been there, done that.
Do you know if any of those Orcas attacked humans after they sunk their boats? Or were they just after the boats? @@Antoniosilva-su2if
@@Antoniosilva-su2if We don't know that the noise of the motor is the thing with them. We had some dolphins back in '93, who kept tipping small boats. The people would lose their minds and make a fuss, and the dolphins would all sit back and watch the people getting mad. They were just doing it for the feck of it to get a rise. That was kind of confirmed when they tipped one boat with a mother and child in it, who screamed. The dolphins all swam over to keep them up, pushed the people and boat to shore... it was close to shore...and never did it again. Like teens. They wanted to get a rise, but they didn't want to hurt anybody. I wonder if the yacht orcas were doing the same thing.
You forgot to mention different orcas basically speak different languages. Even pods that cross paths in the same areas may have different dialects, probably sounding like accents to other orcas.
However, orcas from opposite sides of the world can't understand each other at all, which is a big problem for those in captivity.
Despite having company while locked in a cramped prison, they can't even communicate, making it extra cruel imo.
"They locked me up with a crazy American here and I don't even speak orca english!"
Fascinating facts to know.
The genetic studies imply that there's some interbreeding between groups, so maybe some orcas swap cultures just like humans do.
Oh... oh that's heartbreaking. Even more evidence of how cruel this practice is.
The acoustics of tanks are also a massive issue. Probably the biggest issue tbh. Outdoor ocean pens are used for certain cognitive studies now because tanks jack them up terrible.
I'm picturing the dead salmon carrying as the orca equivalent of wearing uggs. The first year, it was wildly popular. The next year, it was being done ironically. Some day it will come around again as being retro.
There's a pod that figured out how to ride a wave onto the beach to eat seals. The image of the giant orca appearing from a wave onto the beach is utterly terrifying lol
orcas are memelords and i love that. having long lasting culture and short lived trends is...difficult not to anthropomorphize. difficult not to see ourselves in. i would love to know whats going on in their heads.
“I would love to know what’s going on in their heads”
Only one way to know … open up a head or two.
I would toss in a couple grenades just for the terrorist orcas to enjoy.
They are smart enough to know exactly what it is they are doing. So, if you cripple my navigation system, I’ll cripple yours for life with a few sharp explosions near your ears.
Let’s see if they can learn what happens when you declare war and conduct unprovoked on humans.
for sure, they sound like facebook health mommies:
- eat shark liver, it will fix your eye sight,
- balance a salmon on your nose to get rid of acne and have better luck finding a husband.
@@HisameArtworkI really do wonder if the salmon thing was just cause it was funny
sound like teenage goofball humor to me! @@eclogite
I think that's the actual reason why orcas haven't added us to their menu: they can see themselves in us, or vice versa.
I am really hoping nostalgia for the 80s brings the Dead Salmon Hats back.
The "Dead Salmon" trait is actually a gang insignia. Like the "Dead Rabbits" on the Gangs of New York. She was searching for new recruits.
It's a warning: "Many years ago, like the 1940s, it was a thing the Sicillian mafia allegedly did to warn someone that if they did not stop what they were doing or leave town they would “sleep with the fishes”
As someone else said, there was a incident in 1997 of orcas predating on a Great White. I saw a documentary on it called "The whale that ate jaws". The sharks did something interesting too, they vacated the area remarkably fast after the incident. That area, the farallon island, is where seals breed and a favorite spot for sharks to hunt.
sharks are pretty smart
Orcas are extremely smart and can learn/adapt very fast too. Faster than environmentalists are willing to admit.
That’s why they’ll keep attacking boats for fun until someone teaches them that actions have consequences.
That’s why I think every boat skipper should have a box or two of grenades with him, neatly hidden from authorities of course, for just such emergencies.
Out there, just like everywhere else, you are on your own. No one is coming to help, not in time to make any difference. Do what you need to survive these ocean terrorists.
@@dartmart9263 Nah, let them sink the yachts of rich dickheads. If we're lucky, they might actually get one killed and do more for our world than the limp-wristed actions of politicians ever have.
@@dartmart9263 grenades? don';t be absurd.
@@briandavion They should work, right? Or do you think we would need something heavier? Lol
"Pretty fatty" is a tad of an understatement when it comes to sharks, especially Great Whites. Iirc, their livers actually function as the equivalent of a swimbladder, letting them regulate their buoyancy.
(but don't quote me on that, I'm just part of the parasitical internet ecosystem, regurgitating flecks of half-digested knowledge morsels that unassumingly swam into my anemonean filter feelers who knows how many years ago...)
That is the best description & I am here for it!
You are me. I've probably read in excess of 10,000 book reviews during my career as a librarian and I'm full of half remembered facts.
Wait, so Orcas have memes? Isn't that basically what a meme is? Horizontal culture?
Yup, these are orca memes
Check on the orca population visiting Península Valdés in Argentina. They know how to surf until landing on the pebble shore to capture sea lions, and then go back into the water crawling on their bellies with the following waves
Some different transient groups do that, at least up the Pacific coast into California and Canada. Wonder if it's the same groups traveling up the coast or if they learned it from each other, or what? It is a specific move that requires training or they get beached, and they do train each other.
Yeah I seen that style a while back, crazy smart. 😅
Yes! And then they morbidly play with their still living prey, torturing it both mentally and physically.

@@dartmart9263dude lol. 😅 I wasn't expecting that very last phrase 😂😅
Here on the south coast of Devonshire, England, the orca ride the waves onto the beach, roll up onto the land, climb trees and pick fruit, run back into the water on their tail fins. Very smart, very agile and rather silly.
I love how excited Hank is to describe anything, it genuinely makes me so happy
please do a video on the bizarre beast known as thescandinavianclown9057
@@user-gi4qy7lq6h I am a pretty bizarre beast
Also he seems to be in 90% of all educational youtube videos.
Ecotypes are like little orca civilizations. Maybe orcas travel and spend time "studying abroad" with some deciding to stay forever.
I love that, I'm sure you're right!
They always go to Sorcatres for advise
5:57 "Like planking, for the elder millennials out there."
._. me realizing all the implications behind those two words put together all at once.
Don't panic, it just means people on the older end of the Millennial spectrum. Hah, Millennials are only middle aged.
Orca food fads and fashion accessories? Dead salmon the latest handbag?😊😅 Excellent video
more of a hat
I'm so glad you're back in better health and you're talking orcas!!!
Wait, orcas are DOLPHINS? **does quick internet search** And DOLPHINS ARE WHALES?!?!
Excuse me while I go pick up the pieces of my mind-blown brain.
Oh boy... Yeah taxonomy and phylogeny are great. Like snakes are lizards, and birds are dinosaurs bc some versions of phylogeny say that this thing and all their descendents are this. And you can't for example, exclude snakes, bc then you would be missing like half the reptile tree that came after it.
Checks out with how much of freaks dolphins are.
I really never understood why that's so hard for people to understand. Like it's obvious dolphins and whales are closely related. Dolphins being whales just makes logical sense
@@egg7247 I mean they are shaped p different. We weren't exactly taught it, tho idk why
@@egg7247 I just never knew that orcas are dolphins and dolphins are whales. I was excited to learn something new.
Never shame someone for admitting they didn't know something. All that does is make them not want to admit -- or accept -- when they're wrong in the future. And that's how we end up with flat earthers, anti-vaxxers, and climate change deniers.
Still the best show on the internet. And I even guess the animal correctly this month.
There’s a German marine biologist called Robert Marc Lehmann who did a great docu series here on CZcams about Orcas with the worldwide leading orca specialist Ingrid Visser (it has English subtitles). He also made general videos about orcas and how interesting and simply jaw dropping their way of live is. Highly recommend
Will check, thank you!
Can we also add the fact that prior to 2017, orcas haven't been spotted in South Africa. The area in which these 2 males are hunting is a world renowned great white shark area with multiple tours that are struggling because Port & Starboard have scared off most of the great whites.
Been living in the PNW my whole life, and I LOVE that you used the Native-style art for this pin!!! There's art like that all over my hometown of Seattle and I can't wait for my pin!
Orcas realized how they could turn the loud annoying boats off.
That’s what happened.
also fun fact relating to their culture and such, some pods call each other by a small series of clicks, specifically for one individual in the pod, it’s like their own names :)
You forgot that in 1997 a whale watching boat of tourists filmed the first ever killer whale, known as CA2, took out a great white.
Orca's don't belong in aquatic freak shows. They belong in the oceans where nature intended.
Hope you're doing well Hank, get better soon!
Bizarre Beasts has me in a chokehold because the pins just keep getting cooler and I can't miss out

So happy to see you looking healthy and making awesome videos again, Hank! We've missed you ❤
I love that you covered Orca trend culture!! They're so neat!
And! It's good to see you back. 😊
Please tell us more about the pin/t-shirt design/designer.
She is fantastic! We will do an artist bio on the community tab later in the month, but here is her website! carmenredunante.com/bio
i wonder if they think back about the dead salmon summer like we think about pokemon go summer
Their average lifespan is 30-40 years, so probably more like elders reminiscing about Woodstock at this point.
Here before the same Orcas get angry and delete this video.
I was out paddling around in my pal''s canoe!!! Suddenly I heard POW and saw a small fountain in the water near me !!! I thought someone was shooting at me , then I saw an Orca breach just after the splash !!! I realized that it was the whale breathing !! He was quite close , so I back--paddled away . The orca followed ,came right over to me , then swam under the canoe about a meter down ,I thought he was going to rub the bottom of the boat and maybe turn me over !!! I did not want to get et ,so I pulled the paddle up and stayed dead still Guess he wasn't hungry 'cause he just swam away !!! I stayed quiet for another 5--10 minutes , then paddled close to shore and quickly back to the dock. My job was fishing then . Longlining for Halibut and Black Cod Sometimes an Orca would come by when fishing was good , They would swim along with us about 10--20 feet down and deicately pick the fish off the hooks as they came up . We would yell and slap the water to try to chase them away , but they would stay till they were full , sometimes as much as an hour !!! Very intelligent beasts !!!!
The Orca vs. sailboat incidents have, so far, all been off the Spanish Coast, but the YT channel 'sailing brothers' reported last week an odd encounter of Tahiti. In the middle of the night, in the middle of the ocean, something started knocking from underneath on their hull. Very odd.
You'll probably h8 me, but anyway; I used to work on a tuna longline fishing boat, circa 1990's. If the line were cast too shallow, oftentimes many blue whaler sharks would be recovered dead. It was not uncommon that orcas would fish the line ahead of us, and sharks would have their livers 'kissed' out... on occasions where we caught tuna, their heads would often show up (once again) with the body 'kissed' off at the very final pre-cranial vertebrae. A formidable creature, is the orca.
There also a community of orcas that have learned the highly dangerous hunting method of catching seals on the beach, and their social language may be more complex than humans (their cries can do serious harm to humans by their sheer volume)
I love how the ocean is basically outer space to us. Entire different lineages of mammals, with local *cultures*. The real aliens are just orcas.
Orca’s are much like Shriners … fun and harmless unti you give them a few drinks and a mini bike ..?
Now you’ve got the “Hell’s Angels “ with immunity
In New Zealand the Orca often hunt stingrays, they swim in the shallows to get them and even herd them nto harbour lagoons, they bite and jerk-flip them dead without getting stung. eats thier liver, its pretty impressive.
Human: I think I’m intelligent!
Orca: Hold my beer…
It's nice to see the light in your eyes again Hank. Thank you for all that you do, and thank you for all the knowledge you impart on us. I can say surely that the world is a much better place with you in it and I am glad to see that you cancer has gone.
On the subject of Orcas, the more and more I learn about them makes me thing they are smarter than we all give them credit for. Makes me curious to know what it would be like if we gave them thumbs and a way to 'really' communicate with us.
I am no scientist, and i don't truly know if the attacks are hostile or not, but I honestly wouldn't be all that surprised, if they knew the ' humans' were the reason there ecosystem is getting so hot. I Also wonder how effective they would be if they all started a revolt against humanity.
would love more Orca or even just toothed whale/Odontoceti vids; behavioral and neuro-sci explorations.
I LOOOVE ORCAS I am so happy to see them on this channel!!
Nice to hear/ see you on this program. I see you are regaining your facial hair, that must be a mixed bag of happy/sad. ( no shaving with chemo😂)

Designers have outdone themselves already three times in a row, starting with millipedes. Always dreamed of a totem enamel pin, but never expected to get it in such a way, and for it to be both a totem pin and bizarre beast bin! Amazing show, incredible merch, keep it up, guys!
"Down with the 1%!!" - the orcas probably
They are beautiful creatures, truly. I really hope we learn to communicate with them one day.
Great video--I really like your Aleutian (orca) on your shirt. Also like how you use orca art to show the different kinds of orcas. Thanks for sharing!
My theory--sailboat keels look like the dorsal fins of orcas. Orcas seeing such a keel think it's one of their friends in distress and floating upside down. They're just trying to turn him right-side up.
This is the best bizarre beast design so far!
Imagine orcas also refer to things humans do as 'weird incidents'
Orca have been my heart animal for 31 glorious years and I'm here for all the attention they're getting.
I would toss in a couple grenades just for the terrorist orcas to enjoy.

This channel's name needs to change to badass beasts because orcas are that awesome.
Also, love the haida art used!
Thank you for this episode, orcas are my favorite animals ❤ it's hard to pick one (esp with the octopus??) but they're definitely my favorite animals & I love seeing more content about them
I feel like this is how aliens would report on us and our behaviors if they were indeed watching us.
3:45 So, dead salmon hat was the orca version of 1996 swing revival.
"OMG, have you guys tried great white shark liver yet? It's soooooooo good, you gotta try it!"
An intelligent species with a global population has regional cultural variations. 😮
Until the globalists take over
Shark liver oil used to be a key ingredient in Preparation H; maybe those sharks that have a predilection for shark liver suffer from hemorrhoids.
Port and Starboard 🇿🇦 ate sharks on porpoise 😅
“Listen son, sometimes you’re gonna run into metal animals with a bunch monkeys on top of them. Those guys are assholes. Here’s how we wreck their day when we see them”
Great work, Comrade Orca! You are welcome in tgw revolution. 🙂
It's said that every human being has a dolphin on their right shoulder and and an orca on their left. If you examine my search history, you will know why my orca is giggling and why my dolphin is rolling his eyes.
6:00 I would call the horizontal passage of trends a meme... the orcas are memeing
“So bro, I was like hunting this shark ya know, and I started munching and bro let me tell you bro. That sharks liver? Dude it tasted so good! Let’s go try the liver of that shark over there bro!”
Those orca ecotypes kinda sound like human ethnicities maybe, living in different places with different cultures and slight variations in appearance, but still the same species and definitely capable of interbreeding. Those Type A individuals closely related to the far off transient ones might be the result of a chance encounter and a steamy night. =P
It does sound remarkably like that. It's hard, with that part especially, not to anthropomorphise them.
Orcas: "Hey Charlieeee, we're going to candy mountain Charlieee, come with us Charlieee"
LOVE the formline art in this months pin hello
Fun Fact: Sharks will actually blast up to the surface of the water and blow out of the water like they're rockets and orcas take this a bit further and toy with their food
Thank you
Great video

Orcas are in their mean girl phase.
As we are learning here in Canada, who has a long history of trying to stop forest fires completely, it creates bigger problems years down the road with abundant buildup of forest debris. The new policy is to do control burns and let small fires burn to “clean up” the forest floor
I just looked it up... shark liver has significantly less mercury than vegetable oil and cod liver oil... maybe they are avoiding mercury...? Also it is apparently good for the immune system etc.
An orca stole my Amazon package.
[Great white shows up]
Humans: Aahh! Shark!
Orcas: Dude, flip it over and take out its liver.
Splitting up orcas or humans by semantics will have dire consequences.
They have convinced the citiots that puget sound orcas eat king salmon exclusively 😅
Lived on the water my entire life and they eat everything and anything they want. Watched an orca tear apart a sea lion back when I was a kid in the 70’s.
Hey Hank! Enjoyed the video!
So, in other words, Orcas don't give a rats a** what we think or how we classify them. Savage, I love it. Also, we need a "Jaws" movie, but about Orcas. Call it "Blowholes" or something like that.
The great white liver frenzy is actually older than 2017. In 1997 2 biologist saw a pair doing this near the Farrallon islands.
Midroll ads are faking me out more and more. Hank: "Take for example the dead salmon carrying trend of 1987" **sound of a massive crowd applauding**
me: wow, hoards of enthusiastic onlookers for that???
nope that's an ad break
Boy do I love animals fighting back against humans.
human supremacy

Me too.

That shirt is an instant purchase. Great vid!
They def downplayed the nutritional value of the shark liver. They are huge and one of the more nutrient dense options available
I wish we can do an episode on pacas. The cheek bones of these things are really weird, and it seems that juvenile individuals have scales under their fur as well.
Humans can learn from the brilliant examples that orcas set in terms of holding together strong families
wow, love learning
Meanwhile on Orca CZcams: "What's up with humans?"
New Zealand Orca even have stingray hunting specialists in their pods. They will hunt sharks too. But not seals.
