"Sperm Whales' Epic 'Poop Attack' Against Orcas Caught on Rare Video"

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. However, further analysis revealed that the sperm whales used a defensive tactic of releasing feces to deter the orcas, and the orcas likely obtained squid rather than whale meat. 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.
