In a killer whale family, most of them are adult females, immature males, and cubs, with only a small number of adult males.

According to the survival habits of mammals, after the males reach sexual maturity, they are driven out of the family and avoid inbreeding.

Killer whales are a special case, some males grow up to 30 years old and still live with their mothers and sisters, but they do not mate with their relatives, and their thinking is very similar to that of humans, and they seem to know that doing so will affect the development of the population.

This is a thinking ability that other mammals do not have.

The adult males who remain in the family usually take on the responsibility of finding food, and sometimes the female's parents will also participate in the predation, guiding the pups to learn predatory techniques.

But in the face of strong opponents such as large sharks and humpback whales, they do not dare to take risks, and the male whales in the family will end the battle in the fastest and most direct way.

In Liu Wei's field of vision, five male killer whales killed the great white shark, dismembered its body, and instead of eating it immediately, they notified the other members with a long humming sound.

Soon, other killer whales in the family swam over.

Killer whales feed slowly, and they don't scramble and gobble up like crocodiles.

Instead, they swim in a very orderly manner, with several male killer whales immobilizing their prey in the water and the other members taking turns feeding.

Female parents will first bite off the pieces of meat and feed their children.

The audience in the live broadcast room saw that the object it was feeding was at least nearly two meters long, and according to the body growth of the killer whale, it was roughly four to five years old, but it still needed to be fed by the mother one bite at a time.

"It's so big, you still have to feed!"

"It's so doting!"

"My nephew is five years old, and he still needs to be fed!"

"Killer whales have the same habits as humans!"

Liu Wei floated in the water, filming the big family eating in the distance, "Brothers, it will take a while for them to finish eating, let's give you a brief science about killer whales first!"

According to the current research of scientists on the known creatures on the earth, it is believed that the killer whale is likely to be one of the species closest to human intelligence, and it is as intelligent as bottlenose dolphins, chimpanzees and orangutans, and may even surpass them.

The intelligence of killer whales can be directly reflected in the tactics of hunting, today we see how they drive away schools of fish to lure prey, and in their daily lives, there are many more hunting tactics, such as in the polar regions, they tend to churn together to create rough waves to lift seals off the ice, and can catch on the weak points of seals, blowing bubbles underwater to disturb the seal's vision.

They also use sonar to vibrate the herring's swim bladder to bring schools of herring together, and then sweep the fish with their tails to feed on the stunned fish.

What's even more unbelievable is that this kind of creature living in the world's seas has evolved an extremely complex language system, and they can communicate with each other, for example, killer whales that have lived near the polar regions for a long time can communicate with killer whales that have lived in the oceans for a long time, but according to genetic analysis, there are differences between killer whales living in various oceans, just like humans living in various countries around the world have achieved communication through a common language. ”

"Damn, this Nima is too exaggerated!"

"Killer whales living in the Chinese waters of the North Pacific say to the killer whales in the Atlantic: What do you see?"

"Laugh and cry! It turns out that killer whales can speak in tongues!"

"Powerful language skills!"

Liu Wei: "A powerful language system allows killer whales from all regions to migrate around the globe in search of food and cooperation, which is similar to the tribal culture of early humans.

There is another way of saying that killer whales have 2.5 times more intelligence than chimpanzees, which is equivalent to how many years old humans are.

This statement is relatively one-sided, the 2.5 times data is indeed a scientific measurement, but it is accurate to say that this data is a comparison of the brain and body mass of killer whales and chimpanzees, and cannot be used as a result of comparing the intelligence of the two.

The estimation of the intelligence level of the species needs to rely on a series of complex tests, for example, the most basic mirror test, which is used to judge the self-consciousness of the species.

Through years of research and intelligence calculations by scientists, it has been proved that its intelligence is indeed very high, not only good at hunting, but also strong language communication skills and stable and complex social relationships.

We all know that in nature, higher intelligence, more survival ability, which is one of the main reasons why killer whales have become the second mammal to reach the world after humans. ”

The audience in the live broadcast room was stunned when they heard it.

After listening to Liu Wei's popular science, I already regarded killer whales as "humans" at the bottom of the sea!

The only difference is that in the process of evolution, there is a lack of a certain civilization, or a civilization unique to killer whales that has not yet been studied by humans.

The atmosphere in the live broadcast room was warm, and the barrage scrolled quickly, Liu Wei could feel the audience's curiosity about the killer whale, strike while the iron was hot, and then preached, "After talking about the intelligence of the killer whale, let's take a look at its combat effectiveness."

Because of its superior intelligence, many times, it is believed that the killer whale's terrifying performance in the ocean comes from its intelligence, and if it loses its intelligence, the killer whale can only be slaughtered.

This view is also very one-sided, according to industry research and data analysis, in addition to the intelligence factor, killer whales are also a highly combative apex predator of the ocean.

Let's start with a look at killer whales' terrifying record in the ocean.

Baleen whale is a general term for 15 species of baleen cetaceans in the ocean, including the familiar blue whale, gray whale, etc., all of which are deep-sea giants.

Unable to match their size, killer whales pose a threat to 11 baleen whale species and are the only species capable of routinely preying on medium to large cetaceans.

Killer whales are not bullying the weak and afraid of the hard, they only catch the calves of large baleen whales, and they also have a record of killing humpback whales, sperm whales, and gray whales.

Moreover, it is very common for killer whales to kill adult gray whales and humpback whales alone.

Between 1990 and 1993, 3,650 photographic cases of humpback whales that had been attacked by killer whales in the waters of various countries in the North Pacific region were recorded, and visible killer whale bite marks were found on them.

Also in other seas, the opponents with the highest percentage of baleen cetaceans being attacked are killer whales!

Taking sperm whales as an example, we all know that adult male sperm whales are one of the strongest in the ocean, but they are only able to protect themselves in front of the killer whale group, and sometimes they can't even save their wives and children, and watch their relatives being killed by the killer whale group!"

"Is it so powerful?"

"Fat Tiger looks cute, but I really don't see it so strong!"

"King Kong Lori!"
