    The killer whale is cool, but the second one is a great white.

    Marine biologists used to think that the Great White was at the top of the food chain. Then, there was an occasion when they set out to film Great Whites off the California coast, and a Killer Whale, with her baby, showed up. The KW charged a GW and rammed it, stunning it. It came back around, rolled upside-down, and grabbed the shark in its mouth, and then rolled right-side-up again, which turned the shark upside-down. It held the shark like that until the shark suffocated, and then tore it apart. The shark's liver popped out, and the KW ate it, apparently for a snack. The KW's baby stayed motionless in the water, watching the whole time. Apparently, it was being taught the technique.

    When the biologists set out to find the GW's that were previously present in large numbers there, they couldn't find a single one. They theorized that something from inside the shark acted as a chemical signal for the other sharks to get out of Dodge.

    A fascinating thing about KW's, is that they have been known to observe fishermen and then to help them, taking part of the catch as a reward. One, off the Australian coast, would tow the cable from which a purse net was suspended, in a large circle and bring the end back to the boat. When the purse was drawn in, he was allowed to eat from the concentration of fish.

    I would rather see KW's vote, than Democrats. Hell, the KW's will work for a living. [:)]
