Whales Using Bubble 'Nets' to Hunt

Some cetaceans use "nets" to catch their food. Like humpback whales. They'll dive down and swim in a ring around their prey, blowing out bubbles as they go. That rising ring forms a column that traps fish, allowing other whales in the group to swim up from below, mouths agape, through the bubble cylinder to feast.
