Orca Makes History by Solo Killing Great White Shark

Scientists witnessed a lone orca named Starboard killing an 8-foot great white shark off the coast of South Africa, marking the first documented instance of a solitary orca preying on a great white. The incident, observed in June 2023, challenges conventional hunting behaviors and raises concerns about the orcas' impact on the area's ecosystem. Researchers believe that killer whales could potentially drive sharks out of South African waters, leading to changes in the marine ecosystem.
