    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.

    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.

    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.

      Not gonna lie, if you read the article (other orcas wearing sunfish as a hat, others cooperating to raise one above the surface and keep it there while alive, for shits and giggles), that’s not the ocean that is terrifying, Orcas are hella human-like, I’d say
