    Bait ball videos always have comments wondering why the fish compact themselves into a nice grab and go offering, but man, if I was swimming around and saw them, I would think it was a monster and get far away as possible.

    You become a much easier pick without hundreds of thousands of other meatshields and potential prey for the larger fish.

    There are two reasons I don't like the ocean:
    1- Fire does not work there
    2- Everything in it is looking for something to eat.

  • @alestiiidaeno_last3075
    @alestiiidaeno_last3075 9 років тому +7

    Could a bait ball theoretically survive total destruction if every fish in the shoal rushes downwards into the blockade of predators, removing effective hunting measures until they reach a safe depth. But I suppose the fear and panic tactics of the predators are supposed to prevent such occurrences.

      Kabruka Mcdonald What?

    • @bkjeong4302
      @bkjeong4302 9 років тому +4

      Exactly. The predators use fear to cause panic and to cause the prey to self-destruct.

    • @alestiiidaeno_last3075
      @alestiiidaeno_last3075 9 років тому +5

      Bk Jeong The bait fish form a sphere because it is the minimum possible surface area that can be allowed for the school. Each fish attempts to swim inwards to escape the stress factor, resulting in a frantic swimming pattern and disappearance of preferred shoal structure.

    • @bkjeong4302
      @bkjeong4302 9 років тому +1

      Which is what the predators want.

    No. It's not god's creation, it's a defensive technique used by small fish. And the tuna evolved that way. They are absolutely perfect hunting machines.
