"Sperm Whales' Unconventional Defense: Using Giant Poop Bombs to Thwart Orca Attacks"

Sperm whales in Western Australia used a rarely witnessed defense mechanism by releasing a large plume of poop to drive away a pod of orcas that were about to attack them. This strategy, known as "defense defecation," involved the whales forming a circle and fanning their tails to propel their excrement towards the orcas. The event, witnessed by scientists and tourists, helped the sperm whale pod escape the potential fatal attack, showcasing the whales' clever defense tactics in the face of adversity.
