Here's something you don't see every day.
Actually, before this week, you never saw it at all:
"This behavior has never been witnessed in detail before, and certainly never from the air," said lead author Alison Towner, a senior shark scientist at Marine Dynamics Academy in Gansbaai, South Africa.
Only two killer whales in South Africa have been previously linked to hunting white sharks, but never actually seen in action. Only one of those whales was observed in the new footage, along with four other killer whales. The authors believe that the involvement of these four new whales suggests the behavior may be spreading.
"The behavior may be spreading." I guess those orcas are finally putting their long-made plans into action.
Can't say I feel much sympathy for a great white shark!
