0:30 Correction: the amount of plankton to fish needed in calories or biomass would be equivalent, but the amount of prey eaten to repopulation of prey is what would differ. Extremely so. Edit: the manta ray style of filtering is the same as dyson styled vacuums, I wonder if the engineers knew about it.

Meanwhile, on land, we have the school bus, which can sometimes grow as long as one school bus. It feeds though a technique called "tube feeding", drawing extremely energy-dense nutrients from below the ground. Remarkably, while the school bus regularly ingests large prey - particularly mammalian young - it rarely digests them, instead regurgitating them, either individually or in a long, noisy stream.

"It would have to eat a whole lot more fish." That's incorrect. Fish aren't less nutrient dense than krill. It's just that a given amount of primary energy cannot produce enough fish higher up the food chain given the 90% efficiency tax on every link in the chain. There simply wouldn't be enough food if it noshed at the top.
