There are a couple of Orca tormenting sail boats off the coast of Spain. Once they locked onto an idea I guess they stick with it.

That is crazy that just two can do that. For what ever reason that article made me think of the Tsavo Man-Eaters lions (Ghost in the Darkness film). We may be at the top of the food chain, but are we?

Our resident Orcas are super picky eaters...they will only eat salmon and a few other fish. Yet, there are lots of harbor seals available. But they wont touch them. They are endangered...

There shark attacks show how powerful they can be.

Unlimited salmon, whats not to like.

Apex predators that have a choice will pick the easiest highest yield for protein then you have Orcas that have a ton of reasons to kill another Apex predator in there area.

Fun fact, did you know that a moose can dive to about 20 feet deep to eat various marine vegetation. Because of this the orca is also one of the moose’s known predators.

Here's an interesting video on Orcas and whalers working together, long ago in Australia. The Orcas liked whale tongue and that's what they were given for their help.
