    Because killer whales are ferocious carnivores, and they fight in teams, they have a very high level of cooperation, and they also have super high IQs.

    It's because this animal is relatively large, and their attack power and combat power are relatively strong, and they are also social animals.

    Because they are social animals, they are numerically dominant and their teeth are very sharp and very flexible.

    Killer whales do prey on juvenile blue whales in extreme cases, but killer whales cannot become natural enemies of blue whales, after all, in the whole natural world, size and combat effectiveness are directly linked, and the size of blue whales is much larger than that of sharks and killer whales.

    A group of killer whales needs to be very large, such as 20-30 killer whales to prey on a juvenile blue whale. Adult blue whales have no natural predators except for whaling ships and large ships in the human sea.

    To be precise, juvenile blue whales can be eaten by killer whales, and adult blue whales are the equivalent of elephants on land in the sea. No animal dares to mess with.

    There are indeed examples of killer whales killing blue whales, but killer whales can only kill blue whale cubs, and if it is a huge adult blue whale, killer whales can't do anything about them.

    Yes as long as killer whales are more than 2 times as numerous as blue whales.

    As the largest animal on Earth that has ever existed (there is no one), it is already at the top of the food chain. The size is there, and the killer whale group (remember the group) will attack the aging and juvenile blue whales in extreme cases, but if this is a healthy adult blue whale, no matter how many killer whales there are, it will not be provoked, and if it is hit and patted, it will not die or be disabled.

    If killer whales go in groups to hunt blue whales, they will be eaten up in a few hours.

  12. Anonymous users2024-02-04

    The adult blue whale is 180 tons, the adult killer whale is 6-8 tons, and it is generally possible to kill the juvenile blue whale together (about 20 tons for the 8-month-old baby blue whale)! So killer whales killing blue whales are just in case, and there are not many records recorded in history!

    After 45 years of vicissitudes, the killer whale finally couldn't bear the captivity like a prison, let alone the many pains, and finally chose to end his life by self-harm and free himself.

    Second, killer whales are emotional, and they also crave liberation from fate.

    I really feel very sick in my heart when I write this, those poor animals will never find their own home, and even have to desperately escape the clutches of the wicked every day. I just hope that those people can wake up one day, stop harming innocent animals, and let them have their own homes and live their own lives. I hope that there will be no arrests, no torture, no trade in this world, and that the animals will have a home.

    This animal is not suitable for captivity, it is suitable for living in wide seas, and long-term captivity will affect the living habits of killer whales.

    According to foreign media reports: about 230 whales stranded on Australian beaches en masse, and only a few whales survived in the end. But there are some things that people can't change, they can only accept reality.

    But the way to deal with dead whales is to send the whale carcass directly into the sea to be discarded, so as to maintain the ecological balance in the ocean.

    Why are there so many whale strandings this time?

    In fact, there are whale strandings every year, but the number is still relatively small, but large-scale strandings like this one are still relatively rare. At present, the exact cause of this phenomenon is still under investigation, but it cannot be ruled out that the following reasons are caused:

    1. The reason for the terrain. Based on the experience of whale stranding in the past, most whale stranding is actually due to terrain problems. In some areas of the sea, the terrain is relatively gentle, and the whales come to shore with the tide during the predation process, but the tide recedes too quickly, and they do not return to the deep water in time, eventually causing them to run aground on the shore.

    This is also the most common and normal situation.

    2. Environmental reasons. Whales are extremely strict about water quality and have a certain ability to judge the environment. If the marine environment is damaged, in this case, the whales have to leave their habitat in search of a new home.

    If during this period, the whales themselves have suffered some injuries or have abnormal body functions, which will cause them to misjudge or be unfamiliar, thus leading to the occurrence of the tragedy.

    3. Human factors. Although whale stranding is a normal phenomenon, it is not excluded that the occurrence of this event every year is caused by human factors. For example, some whales may have been affected by humans, so they were forced to move to shallower areas of the sea, which eventually led to stranding.

    The most common phenomenon is that various boats are driving on the surface of the sea, and the sound of the boats may interfere with the whale's judgment or make the whale frightened, which eventually leads to the accident. But the specific cause is still under investigation, and I believe the official will give a reasonable explanation.

    The dead whale is returned to the sea for it to make its final contribution to the sea. Whales are also sometimes buried.

  18. Anonymous users2024-01-29

    Then there is a good chance that it will be buried. Some may be used as food for other animals. Because whales die naturally, they actually sink to the bottom of the sea.

    There have been a large number of whale strandings on Australian beaches. There is a high probability that a whale explosion will occur after the death of these whales, and the relevant authorities have arrived at the beach to dispose of the whale carcasses.

    1. In the case of good health, they should be released back to the sea as soon as possible, 2. If there is a shortage of water, they can be rescued first, and 3. If they are injured, they need to be transferred to an artificial environment for treatment, and then released into the sea after recovery.

  21. Anonymous users2024-01-26

    If you want to save whales, you should first ban whale fishing. In addition, humans should not interfere with their habitats, especially in some deep-sea areas, and finally, we need to develop a plan for whale stranding.

    One eats big fish and meat, the other eats small fish and shrimp, one is huge in size and the other is slightly smaller in size, but they are both cetaceans. Blue whales are relatively large and eat, but they eat small fish, small shrimps, and killer whales.

    He specializes in eating big fish and meat, and he may come to eat it when he smells blood. Killer whales can kill sharks, but blue whales cannot, because their teeth are blank and they specialize in killing smaller fish and shrimp.

    1. Blue whales belong to baleen whales.

    Killer whales belong to the category of toothed whales.

    Killer whales have sharp teeth and blue whales don't have sharp teeth, which makes the first one a predator, and the other is a prey. But killer whales aren't as big as it is. If the killer whale had his size, it was estimated that it would be invincible, and it might starve to death because it couldn't find food.

    After all, it is impossible to have big fish and meat all the time, so the teeth of the blue whale can kill some small fish and shrimp, and the small fish and shrimp reproduce relatively quickly, so the blue whale can grow bigger.

    2. Killer whales are fiercer than blue whales. <>

    The blue whale is relatively large, and the number of movement hours is not as fast as the killer whale, the killer whale kills some large animals in the ocean, eats cetaceans and eats sharks, and is almost the status of the overlord in the ocean, while the huge size of the blue whale does not have the power of the overlord, although it has a very large size, but it does not have sharp teeth, even if he is given the throne, he will not be able to do it for a long time. In terms of sexuality, there must be teeth that are sharper than others.

    3. In terms of body size, blue whales are a little larger than killer whales. <>

    The largest animal in the world is known to be the blue whale, which is so large that few animals can fight it head-on. This also gives him a very big advantage in the ocean, but killer whales attack and defend in groups, so it is impossible for blue whales to defeat a group of killer whales that are as fierce as tigers. In addition to its large size, the blue whale has almost no advantages, because the killer whale is smaller and more flexible than it, so this makes the blue whale considered the food of the killer whale.

    Every type of whale.

    They are all precious resources in the ocean, we should protect them, we should not kill them because they are fierce or relatively large, we should give them a suitable living space, after all, many whales are now on the verge of endangerment. The color of killer whales is black and white. Blue whales generally have only one color, so it is generally easy to distinguish killer whales and blue whales.
