Who does not know that many birds prey on fish, and some of them swim on the surface of the sea, looking for prey, others catch fish, as they say, on the fly, snatching it straight from the water in flight.
However, it turns out, it happens the other way around, when predatory fish prey on floating and even birds flying over water. By this different, for example, giant trevally (karangs) – predator, which can be called a real thunderstorm for sea birds.
