We All Have to Eat Sometime...




The big fish in these pictures are Bluefin Trevally.

The small fish in these pictures are Yellowstripe Goatfish.

There were three BFTs chasing down the school of YSG.

Some of the YSGs had some torn skin - damage from ambush attacks they were lucky enough to survive.

I watched these guys go at it for nearly an hour.

I don't know how 'we' as a species got a pass (probably the opposable thumbs and the large frontal lobe), but watching them go back and forth made me completely appreciate being outside of the food chain that the rest of the lifeforms on this rock have to participate in.
