An orca (killer whale) has been observed, for the first-ever time, individually consuming a great white shark – and within just two minutes.

“The astonishing predation, off the coast of Mossel Bay, South Africa, represents unprecedented behaviour underscoring the exceptional proficiency of the killer whale”, remarks Dr. Alison Towner from Rhodes University, who led an international research team into the discovery.

Pokemon-like toxic blue dragons are washing up on Texas beaches. The ocean is full of mysterious creatures – many of which humans only ever catch rare glimpses of. Enter: blue "dragons", or blue sea slugs, a species whose proper name is Glaucus atlanticus.
They are a stunning (and stinging) species that has recently been washing up on Texas beaches, thwarting the plans of many a spring breaker.

A massive rare fish thought to only live in temperate waters in the southern hemisphere has washed up on Oregon’s northern coast, drawing crowds of curious onlookers intrigued by the unusual sight.

The 7.3-foot (2.2 meter) hoodwinker sunfish first appeared on the beach in Gearhart on Monday, the Seaside Aquarium said in a media release. It was still on the beach on Friday and may remain there for weeks, the aquarium said, as it is difficult for scavengers to puncture its tough skin.
