This amazing video shows a Great White Shark feasting on the remains of a bloated Humpback Whale.
Keith Poe captured this footage at Dana Point, California, and had the following to say:

"I am an expert Sharktagger and I work with many scientists in assisting with tagging sharks, and extracting samples, whatever they need. I tag and release many species of sharks. Due to the experience I have over the past 25 years, I am frequently called out for various situations, and occasionally a dead whale will wash up and I help assist in bringing it out to sea, which gives me the opportunity to attract sharks and tag them. In this particular video, this Great White ate off of this whale for 18 hours. I was able to capture many amazing videos and shots during her feast, along with other sharks."
