Off
the coast of San Francisco, an unexpected killing challenged the great
white shark's supremacy as the ultimate predator when one became prey to
a killer whale. Whale-watchers witnessed a stunning act of nature as a
killer whale rose to the water's surface with a great white in its mouth
and held it there for 15 minutes. Even more amazing, biologist Peter
Pyle was nearby and able to get underwater footage of two whales feeding
on the shark. They ate the liver and then departed the scene, leaving
the rest to the birds. The incident raised questions, such as how did
the killer whale take the huge shark without a struggle? And why did the
whales only eat the shark's liver?
