INSUFFICIENT LEANING
Recorded sources
4 sources for · 0 against

Counts group repeated records of the same source within each side. They do not measure evidence strength or source independence.

Is it true that Orcas hunt and eat great white sharks?

Unclear. Several sources describe orcas attacking or killing great white sharks, including a documented case of a pod killing a young great white and a review noting orcas are known to attack and kill great whites. None of the placed items fully establishes that orcas routinely hunt and eat great whites as a general behavior.
