When we think about the ocean, sharks are at the top of the food chain. But what if that’s not always the truth?
An article in the African Journal of Marine Science states that, for the past five years, two orca whales have hunted and sufficiently terrified the great white sharks off the coast of South Africa. According to the study, the orca’s hunting habits have forced sharks to flee, strengthening the theory that fear can change sharks' movement patterns.
