Orcas Target Great White Sharks in the Gulf of California

Recent footage reveals a startling predatory behavior of orcas in the Gulf of California, as they have been seen hunting and paralyzing young great white sharks before consuming their livers. Various videos depict the orcas employing a brutal technique of flipping the sharks upside down, rendering them incapacitated and allowing the orcas to feast on their livers. This unusual interaction between these apex predators highlights the evolving hunting strategies of killer whales, as they increasingly target juvenile great whites in an unprecedented display of predator-prey dynamics.
