It’s a good answer and, even if shark attacks are relatively rare, it’s hard not to see a shark
The research, which was conducted with the help of the Monterey Bay Aquarium and published in the journal Scientific Reports, closely studied the habits of white sharks, orcas and seals over a span of 27 years.
In fact, the white sharks tracked by the scientists not only abandoned areas where orcas were present, but refused to return for huge lengths of time, presumably to avoid any possibility of confrontation with the species they fear.
When confronted by orcas, white sharks will immediately vacate their preferred hunting ground and will not return for up to a year, even though the orcas are only passing through,” Dr. Salvador Jorgensen of the Monterey Bay Aquarium, lead author of the study, said in a statement.
