Killer Whales Prey on Great White Sharks in Mexico


A pod of orcas in the Gulf of California has been observed engaging in a unique hunting behavior, targeting juvenile white sharks specifically for their livers.

This behavior highlights the orcas' adaptability and specialized hunting techniques, as they have developed a method to extract the livers from the sharks, which are a nutrient-rich food source.

The phenomenon raises questions about the ecological impact on the local shark population and the broader marine ecosystem in the Gulf of California.

Researchers continue to study this interaction to better understand the implications for both orcas and sharks in the region.
