These sharks are having a whale of a time at the expense of a dead humpback.

Cruise operator Eco Abrolhos used a drone to shoot this footage of about 70 tiger sharks gorging themselves on the dead whale in the appropriately named Shark Bay in Western Australia.

“Passengers on our 14 day Geraldton to Broome and everywhere in between were treated to an unexpected phenomena whilst cruising inside Dirk Hartog Island. Something to show and tell the Grandchildren,” The operator wrote.
