Northwest Diet Switch has Scientists Concerned about Orcas
Something strange is going on in the Bering Sea, where killer whales have suddenly switched from eating big Steller sea lions to itty-bitty sea otters. The diet switch was prompted by the plummeting population of western sea lions, some scientists say. Other marine mammals such as northern fur seals are also doing poorly. And some of the most commercially valuable inhabitants of the sea, king crabs and shrimp, have nearly vanished.
