There is no escape for hundreds of sardines in front of the whale jaw.

The Bryde whale's food source is sardines. Bryde whales have a length of up to 15m but they can easily disappear in the seabed. This is also the whale that caused a lot of controversy in the scientific world, especially the distinguishing of this species from the Eden whale.

According to Doug Perrine, the author of these photos, capturing Bryde whale photos makes him feel a little scared. The photographer also described the Bryde whale filtering food from the sea with white air bubbles that made them "look like fire-breathing dragons."

Bryde whales live in the Indian Ocean, Atlantic Ocean and Pacific Ocean. This is also one of the species in danger of extinction.

Admire the stunning photos of photographer Doug Perrine posted on the Daily Mail.
