You may get your wish, Larry. I think I saw two off YOUR beach this afternoon. Didn't have my binocs, but the dorsal was awful black, high and thin. The seal blenders just might be here!

Nice....I hope they devour every one of those PIA's!

Free Willy? Hell, I will pay him!

[Fish On]

Great story. I think I'd be a little skiddish with those babies around.

If it makes you feel any better, there aren't any reported attacks against man in the wild.

Its probably just because there was nothing left.

Oh come on, haven't you been to sea world? Killer whales are like puppies.

Given the size of their prey I wouldn't get too comfortable Did some reading about their diet and found this at "http://www.whalesbc.com/

"Transient whales feed primarily on marine mammals. Transients observed in waters of B.C. and Washington State have been seen preying on seals, sea lions, dolphins, porpoises, and other species of whales. Their diet, however, isn't strictly limited to marine mammals. Transient killer whales have also been observed eating sea birds, and the stomach of a dead transient whale recovered up in Alaska contained the remains of a moose. Apparently the moose chose the wrong moment to swim from one Alaskan island to another--something that moose, deer and other land animals frequently do."
