Jesus nature is brutal.
Orcas themselves can be pretty brutal though. They’ll beach themselves to grab baby seals and then play catch with them.
Not our Southern Resident Orcas, of whom Tahlequah is a member. They pretty much only eat salmon, even though there are seals and sea lions aplenty. It’s part of why they are so endangered and probably why this baby died–malnutrition. Not enough salmon thanks to historical overfishing, putting dams on their spawning routes, general habitat destruction, etc.
Don’t forget, microplastics from car tires causing salmon sterility
Oh, I didn’t. Here in Seattle, we have signage at some of our road drainage locations that we shouldn’t dispose of things like motor oil down them because the drainage goes to a salmon stream…on busy roads. I wonder why there aren’t enough salmon! I doubt it’s because of people improperly disposing of motor oil.
Using its corpse as shark bait?
