FOOD

Killer whales have voracious appetites and are not particularly fussy about their diet.
Although they prefer other cetaceans, pinnipeds, and penguins, they will take fish and squid.
Prey maybe swallowed whole, or if too large, first torn into large pieces.
Even the shark is no match for the killer whale which in only too happy to put it on the menu if
one appears.
In spite of their ferocity, killer whales have rarely, if ever, attacked man! Occasionally, due
to curiosity, they have upturned a boat, but have left the struggling humans in peace.
Since they are afraid of shallow water, they are no danger to swimmers, unlike sharks!
