    No carnivorous whales on theEast coast of North America, Orca on the West, but they eat seals, not bears!

    That Orca has had a long trip to the East Coast and is really hungry for a big meal.

    Okay, this confirms my suspicion – Duncan is both a dead dog and [or used to be] a live seal. How does that work?

    Avolunteer: a quick Wiki search says that Killer Whales can be found in all of the oceans (although more often sighted in the northwest Pacific). And while they prefer seals, that doesn’t mean they won’t eat or attack other animals.

    dianecliff: judging by the fact that this critter is blowing water up out of a blowhole, it must be a mammal, not a shark.

    That, and given the black colour and tall fin, lead me to conclude Killer Whale.

    Somebody told me to connect Sunday to Sunday. I guess my memory is not that good. I still don’t get it. But then, I’m 70. Whats your excuse?

    There’s always something bigger …until you get to the biggest, who is taken down by a microbial disease.

    For those confused, who may not be familiar with the Homer series, the thrust behind the theme is reincarnation. In one life, Duncan can be dog, in another, he’ll be a sabertooth tiger. In this particular storyline, which dates back to 2003, Duncan is a seal.

    Homer is always human, but in some lives he’ll be male, others he’ll be female.

    And, yes, Orcas eat bears. Just ask the polar bears who get stranded out at sea due to melting ice floes.

    Finally, IT’S A COMIC STRIP!

    Real life logic does not apply.

    Same can be said for American politics.

    (Sorry, but the Obviousman in me just couldn’t resist that one…)

    This is one principle on why magic doesn’t work. Even if you are a World Class Wizard, take one step off your world, and you face Stellar Class Wizards…

    Duncan is obviously the smarter of the two…..although to be fair, Homer doesn’t have the best luck in the world either…

    So, if Duncan, who is an animal, gets to tell his story, why doesn’t the bear get to tell his story, why is he not in heaven a part of all this. This is why reincarnation ideas are bogus, they always leave someone out. What about the small rodents, and the bugs, and the fleas, and the bacteria? Don’t they all get to be a part of this life cycle? Why does Homer always come back as a human when Duncan can come back as a dog, a cat or a seal?
