## Caption

Scientists captured the moment an orca smashed a sunfish into pieces off the coast of San Jose del Cabo, Mexico. Footage shows another orca appearing to secure the fish in place, which researchers suggest it could show “a high degree of cooperative precision and could represent roles in prey processing, social interaction and learning."

The "ram-to-fragment" behavior seen in the video is believed to serve multiple functions, including play, according to a study. #orcas #sunfish
