这些捕食者在做什么？(What are these predators doing?)

今天是世界野生动物日，也许没有更好的机会来学习虎鲸（也称虎鲸）的知识了。虎鲸是顶级捕食者，这意味着它们处于食物链的顶端。兽人展现出无与伦比的狩猎技能，但还没有任何记录在案的兽人在野外猎杀人类的案例。他们的饮食通常包括大量海洋生物，如鱼、企鹅，甚至鲨鱼和鲸鱼。你知道“虎鲸”这个名字用词不当吗？杀人鲸实际上不是鲸鱼而是海豚。据信，他们被西班牙水手戏称为“虎鲸”，当时他们看到他们在捕猎鲸鱼。

Today is World Wildlife Day and there is perhaps no better occasion to brush up on your killer whale—also known as an orca whale—knowledge. Killer whales are apex predators, which means they are at the top of the food chain. Orcas exhibit unmatched hunting skills, but there have not been any documented cases of orcas in the wild killing humans. Their diet usually includes a smorgasbord of sea creatures, such as fish, penguins, and even sharks and whales. Did you know that the name ‘killer whale’ is a misnomer? Killer whales are not actually whales but dolphins. It is believed they were nicknamed ‘killer whale’ by Spanish sailors who saw them hunting whales.
