Marine birds follow predators like penguins, fur seals, and whales because they know where the good food is in the water. We witnessed a feeding frenzy where over 300 fur seals were hunting together, joined by petrels and penguins. The frenzy then encountered a family of humpback whales, who devoured thousands of crustaceans. This chaotic scene is actually a beneficial strategy for all the predators as it helps them find food. Birds flying above the water follow marine predators like penguins, fur seals, and whales because those hunters know where the good food is under the water. The result can be spectacular. At first, we saw a few Antarctic fur seals on the hunt. Then we saw dozens. Then over 300 fur seals were hunting together, joined by petrels flying above and penguins swimming around them. Then the feeding frenzy met up with a family of humpback whales, each one devouring thousands of crustaceans in one big gulp. This might seem chaotic, but this is an evolved strategy that is actually beneficial for all of the predators. Following each other helps find food for everyone.
