It’s a little bit like school yard justice meets the deep blue sea. The bullies of the ocean, those most notorious and efficient of all hunters, killer whale pods are known to track down everything from whale calves to great white sharks, eat their livers, and tear them to pieces.

They are the humpback whales.
