  • This is the full, uncut version of the amazing film we were able to get earlier this year. In it, we see a pod of Transient Orca, (the T100 Pod) swimming and feeding on a Harbor Porpoise! There's blood, pieces, Orca, and it's incredible. Enjoy!

    Orcas (AND SHARKS ) are THE PROTECTORS OF THE BIODIVERSITY UNDERWATER. ORCAS ARE
    MAGNIFICENT HUNTERS , FRIENDLY WITH HUMANS ALTHOUGH WE DO NOT DESERVE THEIR INTEREST IN US , NO ANIMAL DOMESTIC OR WILD CAN BE COMPARE WITH THEM
    ORCAS ARE DEFINITELY UNIQUE. AND ADORABLE.
    I WOULD PROTECT A POD OF ORCAS WITH MY OWN LIFE
    LET THEM LIVE FREE AND FOREVER !

      @@archides2778 you're right, I'm sure they hunt a few times a day, but remember that not all Orca eat mammals. Resident Orca eat coho or Chinook salmon only, so a little food must go a long way. Transient Orca eat mammals but not all of it and then they share what little they have so considering how large they are and the hundreds of miles they swim in a day, it really makes me wonder how their bodies use food as fuel? When they eat a seal, they'll eat pretty much all of it for the fat content but a shark they'll only take the liver. Nothing else but the liver, mind you it's at least a 500lb liver but only the liver. It really intrigues me to find out 😁

Lots of people don't know about orcas but as I studied them I can tell you they just don't have jaws as strong as sharks. That's why they only eat the tongue and the bottom jaws of whales when they kill them. Because they can't bite throught the rest. And they can't just rip apart a seal or a dolphin either. So they hit them to kill them first so they don't get hurt and can eat them. Same with whales, they have to hit them continuously and try to drown them to kill them because they just can't kill them any other way. U can also most of the time see them tear the flesh of their pray together with two orcas bitting on each side since they struggle doing it alone
