    There’s a reason orcas are known as “the wolves of the sea.”

    I saw a documentary on this (Thanks Shark Week). Fascinating.

    As Lloyd Bridges said about Killer Whales in the 1957 episode of SEA HUNT,..”THEY AUGHT TO WIPE THEM OUT!”

    This is not new news to those of us who read books on wildlife. Gordon Grice's The Book of Deadly Animals from 2010 documents the Orca's dominance over large Great White Sharks; one Oraca holds a shark out of the water while another eviscerates the shark and eats their liver. He includes accounts of where Orcas (Killer Whales) have been found with Polar Bears in their stomachs.

    It is called The Age of Mammals for a reason. Mammals have walked on the Moon and now they are eating sharks for fun and profit.

    Actually, Chuck Norris is the most feared predator in the sea and on land. Killer whales panic and swim away quickly if they see an image of Chuck.

    Killer whales are the Chuck Norris of the sea. With his permission of course.

    Unless there’s a megalodon out there, no shark is a match for an orca.

    Orcas Hunt in packs so it's conceivable that they could do a coordinated attack on a Megladon.
