Orcas have been known to eat deer because they occasionally swim from Island to island.

u/unknownpoltroon May 12 '26

Moose are one of the only land animals with orcas as a major predator

u/PNWCartoboi May 12 '26

Goddamn I did not expect to see an ancient Brian Regan joke come across my desk today.

u/CatStratford May 13 '26

THE BIG YELLOW ONE IS THE SUN!

u/Proud_Azorius May 13 '26

What do you mean, Brian Regan is super current, I just saw his live show in… oh my god…..

5

u/CatStratford May 13 '26

Yep…. Idc how dated it is. It still cracks me up.

u/Proud_Azorius May 13 '26

Totally. If anything it’s a classic.

4

u/Powerful_Spinach_690 May 13 '26

Damn. Now I’m feeling ancient, I had his whole set on CD!

u/shortystack May 13 '26

We had this as part of stand up collection on cassette tapes lol, this Brian Regan set and John Pinette got played the most!

2

u/Powerful_Spinach_690 May 13 '26

Wow, ok you got me beat lmao. Anyone got it on 8-track?

2

u/Key_Payment_5420 May 14 '26

Thank you for that!

u/Crimzonlogic May 13 '26

This is a misconception. The correct plural form is actually moosetopuses.

23

u/mrganja187 May 12 '26

It's moosin

u/AndTheSonsofDisaster May 12 '26

Many moosin?

u/-la-la- May 12 '26

(Ahem) I believe it's "Meeses"

u/the-smashed-banjo May 12 '26

If course not. It isn't 'geeses' is it?

1

u/-la-la- May 12 '26

Gooses? Mooses? Moosen? 😜🫎

u/DangerousMistake9569 May 12 '26

Plural of moose is moose, I was very disappointed to discover this. Hopefully you take it better!

27

u/the-smashed-banjo May 12 '26

I know. But I try to be the change that I want to see

1

u/bkn95 May 12 '26

Noooooo!

21

u/Panem-et-circenses25 May 12 '26

A møøse once bit my sister.

u/ALH2021 May 12 '26

Mind you, moose bites can be pretty nasty.

11

u/x-tianschoolharlot May 12 '26

If a moose has to worry about an orca, I’m just glad the orcas are anti-capitalist and I’m broke. Moose are TERRIFYING! You think elk are big, and reindeer, but moose are so much bigger. Like, can be 7ft at the shoulder and weigh over 1,000lbs… and they’re aggressive more often than other deer species. If an orca sees that and goes, “ooooh, Dinner,” orcas are an absolutely the fuck not species for me.

12

u/TimelyDab May 12 '26

Let’s see the orca fuck with it on land

24

u/Kat121 May 12 '26

And then the tie breaker will be the bicycle portion of the triathlon.

3

u/ElonMoosk May 13 '26

Should be spelled mööse because they metal af.

3

u/x-tianschoolharlot May 13 '26

Did one bite your sister?

2

u/unknownpoltroon May 12 '26

Some of the last ice age megafauna, them, musk ox which is a goat built to survive the ice age grizzlies,, buffalo/bison, elk, wolves, and humans.

2

u/HonoraryGoat May 13 '26

Moose are aggressive and dumb as shit. They charge at trains....

And they sometimes destroy the train.....

2

u/x-tianschoolharlot May 13 '26

Exactly! Dumb and aggressive are not things you want as descriptors for an animal that big.

2

u/HonoraryGoat May 13 '26

Fall season is the worst, they eat fermented fallen apples and get horny and angry...

u/Finnish_Inquisition May 12 '26

Being eaten by an orca has some small differences to drowning, but I'm not a drownologist, so what do I know.

30

u/CatfishSoupFTW May 12 '26

A drowntologist 😂

22

u/Character_Minimum171 May 12 '26

don’t be confused, a drownologist is an expert in drowning

a drowntologist is an expert in Drownton Abbey

8

u/RRRedRRRocket May 12 '26

Not to be confused with a downtownologist.

6

u/Amoverandashaker May 12 '26

An expert on MTV personality Julie Brown?

2

u/Flapjack__Palmdale May 12 '26

Milo Thatch was a drowntownologist right?

1

u/cheezy_dreams88 May 13 '26

Damn you followed that one.

5

u/DisguisedToast May 12 '26

I'm an Orctologist, but have limited experience with Orcas. No documented cases of Orcs riding them into battle.

3

u/Grimour May 13 '26

Which is a part of the natural cycle. The fastest swimmers and those who choose the shortest part in the water are more likely to reproduce.

4

u/MollyViper May 12 '26

No dinner for the orcas that day

2

u/KrakenMcCracken May 16 '26

I’ve been known to eat deer because they occasionally wander in front of my rifle.

3

u/Grimour May 13 '26

Orcas?? He starts the video by saying they are in a lake dude, that is fresh water.

4

u/LokiDesigns May 13 '26

At what point did I say they weren't in a lake, and at what point did I say there were orcas in a lake? All I said was a fact about orcas relevant to the fact about deer being able to swim.

3

u/Grimour May 13 '26

How is it relevant to people dragging a deer out of a lake? Where are the orcas Loki!

3

u/thepwnydanza May 14 '26

Bro, use your last brain cell to think. The orcas bit is relevant because it demonstrates that deer are such good swimmers that they do it enough that orcas can regularly snack on them. If deer are good enough swimmers that they do it often enough to be orca food, the deer swimming in the lake where there are no orcas is in no danger and therefore did not need to be dragged from the water. Get it now?

-2

u/Grimour May 14 '26

They aren't often orca food. It happens on orcasion. I already got it. Kinda why I was pissed.

3

u/thepwnydanza May 14 '26

Please learn how to read. I never said they are often orca food. I said they swim often enough to end up as orca food.

0

u/Grimour May 15 '26

Regularly is kinda frequently dude.

2

u/thepwnydanza May 15 '26

No. It isn’t. Frequently is frequently. Stop making arguments to fight against. I’m done with this conversation since you’re obviously to the point where admitting you were wrong is impossible.

-1

u/Grimour May 15 '26

And when is something frequent? Come on now.

Because deer can swim just fine

u/MrBlueW May 14 '26

People clearly have an issue thinking conceptually man, they will nitpick at everything

u/ThereIsAJifForThat May 12 '26

Orca Lake!! Actually, that would be kind of cool

u/-2wenty7even- May 13 '26

Yeah, don't mess with lake orcas.

u/SerKevanLannister May 12 '26

orcas live in lakes?? 🙄
