First Time In World History, Killer Whales Filmed Hunting Dolphins

A tour operator in Port Elizabeth, South Africa, alongside his boat captain and 4tourists were the first to stumble upon the hunting habits of a pod of orcas......using a dolphin as a battering ram. Hey, we all tenderize our meat, yes?


Ranier Schimpf was leading a group of divers when they noticed that one dolphin had been separated from his pod by five of the killer whales. The dolphin was sent flying through the air by the force of impact from Shamu and his pals. When the dolphin finally laid to rest atop the sea, Shamu pulled him under.
Now, normal people, at this point, would get onto the boat. But not these cats. They dove under, and continued to record the orca's behaviors. Once decided to be friends, the orcas allowed them to watch, even introducing hte calf of the pod to the people - but at a safe (and protected) distance.

This is the first time the hunting process of orcas and their post-hunt behavior has been recorded.
