Sea Turtles and Sharks

Recently a curious phenomenon has been observed in oceans.

Killer whales biting avidly in the liver of sharks.

It is well known that those first mentioned predators possess a bigger brain than us humans.

Is intelligence proportionate to size of this organ?

This has been a theory since always with its defendants.

It is well known that consuming flesh near self-constitution causes an immune reaction in the long run against the own body.

First organ concerned is the stomach, which loses in this process its parietal cells.

The result is that Vitamin B12 cannot be absorbed by the small bowel.

This vitamin is responsible for regeneration of the nervous system and for regulating coagulation.

In its absence degeneration of first occurs and widespread thromboses and embolies.

The liver is the organ where the vitamin is saved in biggest amount.

Little is known about nutrition of sharks, but some of those fish live several hundred years, and most of the time they are scavengers.

Decaying food becomes little by little as good as cooked one, very far from self-composition.

Sea turtles on the other hand eat a lot of jellyfish, which are extremely far from reptiles.

Their lifespan, also, is several hundred years.

I wonder when humanity would start consuming jellyfish, so abundant in our waters.
