Humpback whales hunt in a cooperative fishing effort called bubble-net feeding. The whales encircle schools of fish and blow a net of bubbles around them. Confused and frightened, the fish congregate in the center of the bubble net. The whales then lunge forward, mouths open, and gather their catch.
