Boaters Are Startled By Frantic Seal, Then They See Pod Of Orcas Closing In Behind Him

The circle of life is an amazing thing. It’s a beautiful thing, in fact. The world keeps on turning because of it.

However, when you get up close and personal with it, it can get a little less pretty.

Animals out in the wild do what they have to do in order to survive. For carnivorous animals, that means making other animals their dinner. It’s not a hateful act, it is simply the way the circle of life works.

Sometimes, though, the animal being hunted can still come out on top. If the prey is quick enough, resourceful enough, and eager enough, he can make it out alive and live a long and happy life!
