Nature can certainly be ruthless.

It's best exemplified in this video of 70 tiger sharks getting stuck into a humpback whale, which had recently died in Shark Bay (of course) in Western Australia. Cruise operator Eco Abrolhos uploaded the video on Facebook on Saturday.

The feeding frenzy stretched on for ages and was magnificently captured with a drone, as passengers on the Geraldton to Broome cruise watched on. 

Anyone up for a swim?
