It comes as scientists in South Africa have voiced theories that sharks may been lured closer to popular shorelines as they avoid being hunted by deadly orcas. Several carcasses are said to have popped up across the globe with evidence they may have been feasted upon for the purpose of consuming their organs – such as their liver. Jon Monsoon, who works at a shark adventure company in Cape Town, says orcas have been known to develop a taste for a specific energy-rich oily compound contained in sharks organs called squalene. "Ingesting the shark's liver gives the orcas a charge unlike any other prey meat", he wrote online. "So it is likely that the orcas become addicted to this substance and seek it out in ever greater quantities."

This summer shocking footage emerged showing desperate sailors fighting for their lives after raging orcas attempted to capsize boats. More than 230 orca interactions have been reported in the last two years, ranging from the massive animals approaching boats to attacking them. The creatures are regularly spotted in the areas such as Spain and Portugal as they migrate to feed on tuna living around the Straits of Gibraltar. In August, an orca pod sank a tourist boat off the Portuguese coast. The 20-foot beasts smashed a hole in the side of a ship, which was sailing just of Sines, forcing holidaymakers to abandon the vessel. Read More on The Sun
