As natural submarines, they shut down all their organs except for their heart and brain, and using their muscular tails are able to dive for up to a mile, spending up to two hours feeding on squid. As vision is useless, they use sonar clicks to locate squid. The result is the loudest animal noise in nature, able to stun or kill prey.
