TL;DR Summary

Tourists in Australia witnessed a rare and intense battle between orcas and sperm whales during a whale watching expedition. The orcas chased and attacked the sperm whales, leading to a dramatic and unusual encounter.

The event provided a unique glimpse into the behavior of these "titans of the ocean" and highlighted the wild nature of the marine environment off the southwestern coast of Australia.
