Like flipping a shark over and making it stupor.
Just looked that up, interesting phenomenon for what we see as an apex predator. Even more crazy is what I read after the definition of tonic immobility lol
"In 1997, an Orca in the Farallon Islands was seen holding a White Shark upside down for 15 minutes. Whether intentional or not, the Orca likely caused the shark to enter tonic immobility. Defenceless, the shark, suffocated. This also happened again in 2000."
Nature is crazy
