Sardine Feeding Frenzy with Sharks, Penguins and More | 4K UHD | The Hunt | BBC Earth

A sizeable shoal of Sardines proves to be quite a magnet for a variety of different sea predators. Surprisingly, none of the predators on display attack each other, instead they corral the ball of fish, taking turns to eat.

[@francoisleclerc521]

We have to keep in mind that each female sardine lay 50 to 60 000 eggs each time. Even if most of them are eaten during their larvae period drifting in the current, many will make it to the mature stage and reproduce as well. There’s another fish species even more common with trillions of individuals, it’s the lantern fish that spend most of its time in the deep. David Attenborough spoke about this species once in « Our planet - High seas » entirely available on youtube !

Sardining ain't easy. 🖖

[@PulseNews-gu9fe]

Birth and death are the boundary limits of the life of every being on the planet. These are two sisters who complement each other, two halves of the whole, who constantly touch and interact. Each is the start of something new, at the same time both symbolize the completion of another cycle of being. And if we associate only pleasant and joyful moments with birth, then the end of life, approaching daily, scares and scares the unknown.

It sucks to be a Sardine. I think I saw my Nona in there grabbing a few.

[@Astrapionte]

This should be a video game! “Sardine Attack n Run”! Here’s my vision. GOAL: Collect as many sardines as possible. Their baitball ability can impede progress. If UTILITY is inefficient, they will escape into deeper waters. OFFENSE: * Cape Fur Seal: general school controller. High agility, moderate speed, moderate accuracy. Starter choice. RANGE: * Cape Gannet: Plunge Dive ability. High speed, moderate accuracy, low agility. PRECISION: * Cape Cormorant: Precise Dive ability: Very flexible and agile, with moderate speed. Extremely accurate as well. *Sooty Shearwater: Range + Precision. Also has the precise dive ability. Smaller. Low speed, high accuracy and moderate agility. Smaller size. Shorter cooldown rate. * African Penguin: Precision + Offense. High accuracy, agility and speed. Longer cooldown rate. UTILITY: * Eastern Little Tuna: Thunnus Swarm ability: calls a school of tuna to strike from the bottom of the baitball, preventing them from retreating to deep waters. Moderate agility, high speed, low accuracy. HEAVYWEIGHTS: * Common Dolphin: Heavyweight Utility. Baitballer ability: schools and divide the baitball into smaller, more manageable shoals. High agility, high speed and moderate accuracy. * Copper Shark: Heavyweight offensive. Bronze Herder ability: herds sardines into baitball. Bull Charge ability: individuals take turns charging through the baitball, taking more than 1 fish at a time. High cooldown rate. Moderate speed, high agility, and high accuracy. * Bryde’s Whale: Heavyweight nuke. Make Way ability: when Bryde’s Whale charges towards a baitball, other predators move away. Uses huge mouth to scoop up hundreds of sardines. High cooldown.

[@C6BaizhuHaver]

Whales are filter feeders, their throat isn’t big enough to swallow a Sea lion even if it tried, it’d choke/suffocate 59 to death, The Sea Lions also got out of the way as the Whale was approaching
