- In just a few hours, more than 2 million Atlantic cod consumed 10 million tiny capelins.
- This feeding frenzy is the largest on record, both in terms of the number of fish involved and the area covered.
- Each winter Atlantic cod feed on spawning capelin along the Norwegian coast.
- The analysis has revealed 23 million capelins grouping together in a shoal that stretched for miles.
- The shoal drew the attention of 2.5 million cod, which formed their own massive group in response and ate up 10.5 million of the assembled capelins.
