hey i notice something birds that are really big on carrion and predatory and aggressive feeders like skuas and giant petrals would make easy grabs for seals whales and whatever else but nothing ever makes grabs for them instead
penguins, cormorants, albatross, all kinds of other birds are targeted but never the aggressive feeders like skuas and giant petrels
i even found accounts of sea gulls being taken
still nothing of skuas or giant petrels
is there reason why these bird are ignored
I was watching video clips of giant petrels feeding and they will go right over top of an aggressive predatory seal feeding right with the seal inches away from deadly teeth, the skuas do the samething other sea birds never get this close to predatory mammals it would be so easy for one of these to catch a skua or a petrel but they never do.
wonder if their meat t may be toxic to mammals ?
