    Every year, between May and July, billions of migrating sardines come to spawn off the coast of South Africa. What was the most interesting thing you learned about sardines?

      What i've learned = I think sardines are the stupidest fish on the ocean, because they prefer to get eaten by sharks instead of running away from the death gate.. If only they can separate one another,, ah, sardines Logic.

      Thank you so much National Geographic about this knowledge! I get new learning that sardines is food some ocean animals. Sea animals haunted sardines fish 🐟 as their food. Killing sardines fish like seagull or tern, shark, and also whale! Oh, my Godness...
      I think just human like me eating sardines, but not only me 😁😅.

      @@TONEakaSHOWanhingas and comorants are birds that can fly and they are master divers and swimmers. We have a pond behind our house and they are there all of the time and after they get out of the water they will sit on a ledge or a buoy to dry their wings. They look like black gargoyles with their wings spread out. And when they fly they literally look like bullets. When they dive they will swim and pop up in another part of the pond. Quite amazing to see actually

    Some of the sardines were able to "escape" this ordeal. The ones that "got away" survived, able to "breathe" a sigh of relief. Whew! Only to end up packed and crammed in small pull-back tin can coffins so WE can now feast on them! I guess it ain't easy being little fish. I suppose krill and plankton ain't feeling sorry for the deens.
