I’m just taking out the garbage!

Some whales just eat krill, but killer whales eat almost anything they can catch. This can include dolphins, seals, fish, turtles, squid, birds—even other whales! A killer whale was even found with the remains of 13 porpoises and 14 seals in its stomach.

Think of this the next time your mom tells you to chew your food properly. A 15-foot (4.6-meter)-long great white shark caught in New Zealand was found to have a whole bull seal in her stomach! The seal weighed 160–180 pounds (80–90 kilograms) and had been eaten in just two pieces. CRUNCH CRUNCH!

I’ve got terrible indigestion!
