And the baby sharks get stressed when they can't swim away and hide deep down when they see something they believe it's a threat.

@@kingghidorah8106 I didn't realize there was a neurological/psychological aspect, that makes it much more sad... I thought it was simply a matter of them being conditioned from millions of years to travel thousands of miles of open ocean, so the concept of being caged in glass is so alien to them that they keep hitting the walls of their enclosure until they kill themselves.

it is funny because great white sharks do have more complex feelings than the average shark. They even know how to hide frustration when they meet a competitor. Opening your mough against someone larger than you would be considered a middle finger in shark language, so when a bigger shark steals from the smaller shark the smaller shark often waits til the bigger shark is no longer watching and opens it's mouth towards the stealer. Bigger sharks can open their mouth to smaller sharks to see because they are not a threat.

Been watching animal-content on YT for several years. Just now came across this channel. Really enjoyed the unique, 1st-person pov, and this was very informative too! Subbed

Now we need the Orca episode

[@izlieraiden8697]

The episode gona be like "You're born to a big loving family, apex predator ever since you're born, quite literally nothing could stop you and your family, you die of old age"

[@Luke_cockhold]

​@@izlieraiden8697nothing can stop them only if they are together, one on one vs a great white is not gonna be an easy day at the office.

[@Dragonfire-ir5ln]

​@Luke_cockhold orcas would dominate great whites, they are just stronger, smarter, and bigger, great whites have zero chance, orcas are legitimately just apex predators of the ocean, and they are smart enough to even realize not to attack humans (the times they did were all from captive orcas I believe)

[@whirlybird268]

​@@Luke_cockhold There were never incidents of Great Whites killing Orcas. There was even one FEMALE orca I repeat, ONE FEMALE ORCA that decimated a Great White and ate its liver. Another story is Port and Starboard who have been massacring Orcas in the african sea. It is also been stated that Great Whites are scared of Orcas and tend to flee their normal hunting grounds if they sensed orcas. So idk where you geat your bravado false statement from. Either you're a Great White fanbiznatch that can't handle the facts or just clueless lol.

[@nightmares_phoo]

​@@Luke_cockhold orcas might even win a One v one against a Meg(low chance), due to their sheer intelligence, great white is easy. Orcas are just better in every way.

Danm that ending. I kept waiting for the killer to be shown as orcas all video long, but danm that ending deliverd in spades. Amazing content!

I randomly stumbled on this, you mix educational stuff with humor/entertainment/art and it's really cool! I love the story telling! I need Your life as an Orca!

[@laylaloveshares]

I'd love to see a "Your Life as an Orca" video to go along with this one! Especially considering how, mostly recently, we've been viewing orcas as crueler due to their unusual forms of play (slapping seals several feet in the air with their tail for example). Love these videos and I do believe I've binged every single one of them in the short time I've known your channel. Very informative and incredibly fun and easy to follow "storylines" and designs for each animal! :]

[@megan00b8]

Fun fact: when great white sharks hear orcas they will sometimes swim hundreds or even thousands of miles just to get the hell away from that. Humans in our human fashion actually use this as a deterent, playing orca sounds underwater in places with higher risk of shark attack to keep them at a safe distance.

Crazy life style. Sharks are literally born to instinctively kill asap to survive, unlike cute polar bear cubs that have to learn over time.

[@cds3703]

Tf, sharks learn how to hunt too. Young white sharks are known to select certain places to practice hunting.

[@ariafiresong]

@@cds3703 I think the difference is that they kinda have that know-how from birth, as opposed to needing to be taught. Sure, they practice, but momma shark isn't exactly showing them.

[@BlueIzHyper_91]

They do learn from observing other bigger, older and more experienced great whites. In South Africa when hunting seals, younger sharks and juveniles in general have a much lower success rate compared to the more experienced whites.
