Sharks versus Killer Whales

 Here is a bit of news from the natural world. It got me surprised. So I stumbled on an article from Pocket: The Predator that Makes Great White Sharks Flee in Fear. The predator in question is... the killer whale. I guess with a name like that, I should not have been surprised. I know orcas are not the cute cuddly creatures they are often depicted as in movies and aquariums. Still, it's the great white we are talking about. That seemingly unstoppable predator of the sea. I always had a bit of fascination for great white sharks and sharks in general. I guess I am not very original saying this, but from an evolutionary standpoint, they are simply amazing. So it kind of makes me sad that killer whales can get the better of them.
