Yeah, being on the beach doesn't automatically make you safe from orcas. I'm personally very grateful that we apparently aren't as delicious as moose.

And they love shark liver. It's a really good thing we don't taste like shark liver.

Dolphins are known to be assholes, and Orcas are really big dolphins. That beach dive move is like swerving to hit an animal in the grass/sidewalk on the side of the road.

I think the swerve maneuver is a little better when you plan to eat the roadkill and are an obligate carnivore.

Some populations of orcas know how to hunt in land. Yep. That exactly.

It's something they learn and teach each other.

The most famous of those groups lives far away from any moose. But I don't know if there's any small group near them.
