Marine Mammals Don't Hunt?
« on: January 14, 2007, 03:36:47 PM »
I remember clearly in the demo, I made a tundra 'Antarctica' with rockhopper penguins and orcas, the orcas living of the penguins. There were also arctic cod in the water for them to eat. But one time an orca killed a penguin.

But not in the game, the orcas don't hunt penguins, emperor or rockhoppers. Was this removed or something?

that's strange. However, walruses and sea lions love to hunt animals.

my dolphins were stalking my sea turtles, and my orcas would stalk penguins but would starve and never eat them

Water animals won't eat the land prey they caught when the prey turns into an original carcass because the carcass is on land. They only eat them if they die in the water and turn into a marine carcass.:thumbsup:

they'll eat the tuna and cod, but won't hunt anything else. Which kinda stinks because I was simulating Antarctica. I put fish (not live prey, the kind that you put on land) for penguins on land, and I was planning on orcas eating penguins but they aren't... its weird.

I remember once an Orca stalked a Beluga calf, but didn't attack. A Great white attacked one of my Sea Lions, but didn't kill it.

I always run Dolphin/Orca/FKW, and I have never had any death there. Even with babies.

Heh, even when I run shark mixed exibits, there is no problem.

Orcas can hunt whales down. A white shark is smaller that an orca. If an orca is hungry, a shark is a good prey. They do that in real life, it's good they doing so in the game.

But they DO hunt, that's why the dummy seal for them as an enrichment object.
