Bloody killer whale predation on female elephant seal

Disclaimer: this is a scientific research video showing the actual behavior of wild animals in natural settings and is fully uncensored.
Sometimes animal behavior can be disturbing to the sensibility of some people therefore viewers discretion is advised. Elephant seal female predated by killer whales off the coast of Sea Lion Island Falkland Islands.
Observing killer whales from the air drone gives an invaluable perspective on their behavior which is very difficult to appreciate from shore or even from a boat.
Here Pumas pod a well known orcas pod in the Falklands got a female elephant seal that was probably coming back to shore for her moulting period.
Surely a very good meal.
Interesting to see the newborn called Pepper only a few weeks old actively participating to the feast ! And a very bloody end it is incredible how bright red is elephant seal blood ! In this occasion our drone DJI Mavic Pro Platinum gave its best at filming this incredible event just before...going for a swim in the ocean :- Sigh sigh sigh...it gave us a remote controller error lost connection with the app meaning we couldnt see exactly where it was and finally started descending too quick until...puff a big dive ! This is the reason for the low resolution in the video it is the one streamed live on the connected tablet !
