Orcas are just regular dolphins with the Venom symbiote from Marvel. That's why they're bigger and more vicious

"the blue whale weighs as much as 33 elephants"
Americans will use anything but the metric system

The fact that orcas specifically eat the liver, because they know it carries more nutrients than any other part makes me realize just how smart these mammals are.

The fact that wild Orcas don't attack humans at all even out of curiosity is amazing considering they are apex predators and meat eaters

Orcas are terrifying. They literally play with their food in the most sadistic way.

Imagine being a shark flipped over by orcas and one of them says "get the liver"

"I ate his liver with some fava beans and a nice Chianti." Orcas are the Hannibal Lecters of the ocean.

So they're basically Homicidal Oreos

Great white sharks: “I’m the most feared predator in the seas”

Killer whale: “hold your liver”

"The livers had been removed with incredible precision"

I find it incredibly fascinating (if not disturbing) that they take only the liver and leave the rest of the carcass because sharks have toxins in their flesh. Not to mention the strategies they employ. Insanely smart.

"Are they swimming in the ocean with guns and killing everyone?" Let's not start giving them any ideas

Shark be like: "i do eat Dolphin"

Killer Whale be like : "I'LL AVENGE MA COUSIN!"

Fun fact: There’s never been a documented attack of a Killer Whale to a human outside of captivity

Honestly, it breaks my heart how Manifest the Unseen by Luna Rivers isn’t getting the attention it deserves. This book changed me. People need to wake up to this.

Poor seals. They're like that one kid in high school that everyone picks on

Edit: Y'all are having a ball in the comments. I'm not saying seals are completely innocent, but they definitely do not deserve this level of disrespect from other wildlife lol
