VS

http://www.extremescience.com/orcavshark.htm - where i got the idea from.


My vote: Whale. Although it might not have as big of jaws or teeth, it is faster, smarter, and has a thick layer of tough fat under it's skin for protection unlike the shark that has nothing but skin and bone and a very thin strip of fat.

[spurs_fan_in_exile]

This is Mother Nature's version of Suns vs. Spurs. The shark's got a lot of O, but the whale brings size and D to the table. Although the shark in Jaws 2 did kill an orca. I figure if Seaworld ever gets strapped for cash they'll find a shark and put this puppy on pay-per-view.

:lmao

[E20]

The Great White Shark would win.

[DarkReign]

Size matters. Humans can try and explain that fact away as we like.

But truth hurts. Whale > Shark, 999 out of 1000 (even whales can stub their toe).

[Aggie Hoopsfan]

Great whites have been documented as killing killer whales with pretty reliable certainty. Shark > whale.

[NorCal510]

damn ninja ill take ummm the shark fo sho

[dougp]

Whale is a lot more vulnerable than the GWS ... they did something like this on that Encounters show where they pit two unlikely animals against one another.

GWS vs. Salt Water Croc ... GWS won even though part of its fin was ripped off.

Shark vs Crocodile. LOL. That not even fair.

I would take the whale in this matchup.

[E20]

But, the beast that will own both of them, is the King of the Animal Kingdom, The LION!!!

[ALVAREZ6]

Killer Whale.



Easy decision.


1. They outweigh a shark and out muscle a shark by a huge margin

2. They are smarter and fucking badass

3. I don't even have to explain it, it's just common sense.


It's not called the Killer Whale for nothing

[Marklar MM]

^Adding to that, I do believe the Orca is the top of the food chain in the ocean.

[ALVAREZ6]

Stupid Great White Shark gets too close to a Killer Whale and her baby. The killer whale wants to take no chances with her baby and makes mincemeat out of Jaws in 2 seconds. Stephen Speilberg's Jaws is fake, in real life Whales eat sharks, not the other way around.

Believe it or not, this is a video of a killer whale, doing exactly what its name says...killing a great white pathetic shark.

[ALVAREZ6]

Sea kayaking anyone?

WARNING: If you don't like to see killer whales swimming quickly all the way up to the sand and mutilating seals, then do not watch this video.




BTW, what is shown in this video takes place in Argentina.

:tu

[ALVAREZ6]

:lmao

The killer whales actually fuck with the seals in the video by tossing them in the air...I shouldn't be laughing, but those killer whales are brutal.


So when you ask the question again, I'd take the killer whale over the great white.

If you don't wanna see a Whale getting owned by a Shark don't look. And don't Great Whites travel in packs some of the times?

Do Great White Sharks hunt in packs? (http://www.national-aquarium.co.uk/databases/FAQsLibrary/index.asp?FAQCategoryID=&FAQID=756&SearchText=#question756) Until recently great whites were thought to be solitary creatures with no social life. Great whites have been noted to travel in loose but stable groups of two to six individuals, in which social rank seems to be well established. They will form a dominance hierachy especially if the come together over a whale carcass or other rich feeding opportunity. Hunting together, though, is still undocumented. We know that in certain areas such as at the Farallones from September to November Great Whites congregate at the islands apparently to feed upon the local seals but whether they work together we don't know. A good book to read is the field guide to the Great White Shark by R. Aidan Martin. http://www.national-aquarium.co.uk/databases/FAQsLibrary/index.asp?FAQCategoryID=&FAQID=756&SearchText=

One of these days I want to go cage diving so I can see a Great White up close and personal. I've seen an 8 ft blue shark up close and that was pretty cool.

You know. The guy went in the cage in the movie...didn't help him much, as he was stuck on the bottom of the ocean for a while, as the brave sheriff blew up Jaws.

I guess I owned the cow when I had my poor boy from Bill Millers today too, huh?

:lol

I'm pretty sure the shark wasn't the reason the whale was dead.

gotta go with the shark.
the planet earth's baddest creature, however, is the rhino. don't forget about a rhino.

gotta love a shark though.

I guess that footage was left on the cutting room floor....

For reference, sharks don't have any bones, only cartilage.

Common sense? This coming from a person who posted that they would like to get bit by a shark, just not a great white shark, in the Shark Week thread. :lol

[exstatic]

Orca. Not saying the GW wouldn't win some, but smart, mammalian, and adaptable beats invertibrate eating computer most times. Hell, there have even been reports of dolphins driving off GWs by ramming their gill slits repeatedly. The Orca is at least that smart, bigger, nastier, and faster.

In this corner: Orca 22-27 feet, weighing in at 8000-12000 pounds, top speed 30 mph

In the other corner: Jaws 20 feet 4000 pounds 15 MPH in bursts.

Haven't you seen Deep Blue Sea. They ate me, a fucking shark ate me!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The dolphin part is true.


Dolphins hold their own against sharks by ramming those fuckers with their nose.


Now take a dolphine, make it 20 times bigger/heavier, give it teeth and huge mouth, and you have an orca.



Killer whale >>>>>>>>>>>>GW

To his credit it was a baby great white. None the less did you see how that whale just fucking grabbed him and took him HOME. HOLY! Anyways, don't screw with the Orca's young or you'll get asschuckled. That shark thought he had him some easy food too.

A liger is a cross between a lion and a tiger.

Not to be confused with a tigon, however.

[ALVAREZ6]

Isn't that video sick.





I just can't get enough of how the Killer Whales swim like jets up to the shallows onto the sand and grab themselves seals, bring them back to the ocean and toss them around.




That shows that they aren't just hungry animals playing their role in nature, they are killers. I would hate to be a seal.

[ALVAREZ6]

I know what a liger is, they are big fuckin cats, one solid tan color.





I just questioned the "Liger beats all" comment :lol

[Brutalis]

Seriously though I understand you gotta eat. That's tough. But throwing them around 30 feet in the air knocking them with your tailfin for shits and giggles? That's just rude. Lmao.

[ALVAREZ6]

That's just mean. It's cruel.






But I guess that's why they're "killer" whales.

[CuckingFunt]

Don't tell me you never played with your food as a kid.

[TheSanityAnnex]

Just like you knew about the donkey with retarded ears that turned out to be a water buffalo? :lmao

What continent is the Liger found on? :lmao

[CuckingFunt]

They've been bread in captivity. As has the tigon.

They do not exist in nature, as far as I know.

I only said it was a donkey with retarded ears because NorCal510 said it was a donkey.

[CuckingFunt]

http://i3.photobucket.com/albums/y59/underseth/liger.jpg
Ligers, unfortunately, don't actually look like that.

They'd kick ass if they did.

[TheSanityAnnex]

Lies!!!!!
No I wasn't, and no I am not a liar.






Either way, go check the poll in the troll forum to see how many people thought it was a donkey.

Then some stupid bitch came in and demanded that it was a cow. She called me a retard for saying it's definitely not a cow, and MaNuMaNiA hinted himself towards thinking it was a cow.

[ALVAREZ6]

Anyway, let's not ruin this thread.

Killer Whales not only travel in packs, they are excellent pack hunters. Stories of their cunning off the coasts of Europe are legendary.

I think to some extent it depends on which shark and whale we're talking about. For instance I think the shark from Jaws 3-D would kick the shit out of the whale from Free Willy. The shark just has too many dimensions to its attack in that match up. Plus the shark was roughly the size of a nuclear submarine and Willy was a little bitch.

[atxrocker]

Good read on Ligers, LMAO

But, is able to kick major ass? Does anybody know? It's average weight is supposed to be 1100 pounds and is bigger than both the Lion and the Tiger.

[ALVAREZ6]

Twice the size of a male lion.
