    Orcas will also jump on the beach to catch a moose and then squirm back into the water

        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.

        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.

        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.
