Alright after doing some digging I found that these two specimens were probably below 7m. PROBABLY. KANGA is most likely in between 5 and 6m. MALTA, on the other hand, is around 6.68 to 6.81m long. But 7.14m should not be ruled out. While this is a size decrease, it still makes her the largest measured gws - reliably. This specimen would have been ~2720.67kg (if 6.745m) by my reckoning. Still huge nonetheless.

MALTA vs large African Bush Elephant: That’s a cool idea. Can you make Maraapunisaurus/ Amphicoelias vs blue whale? |

MALTA vs large African Bush Elephant: That’s a cool idea. Can you make Maraapunisaurus/ Amphicoelias vs blue whale? Tomorrow. I'm tired. I was playing my 'new' game earlier but it crashed and I lost a lot of progress, and I'm currently trying to find my feet again - Almost there again. |

Chat GPT: It is possible for a great white shark to kill a pilot whale, but it is not a common occurrence. Pilot whales are relatively large marine mammals that can grow up to 6 meters (20 feet) in length and can weigh up to 2,300 kg (5,000 pounds), depending on the species. Great white sharks are also large predators that can grow up to 6 meters (20 feet) in length and weigh up to 2,250 kg (5,000 pounds).
While great white sharks have been known to attack and kill a variety of marine mammals, including seals, sea lions, and even other sharks, they are not typically known to prey on pilot whales. Pilot whales are highly social animals that often travel in large groups, or pods, which may make them a less attractive target for a solitary predator like a great white shark.
However, there have been some instances where great white sharks have been observed attacking and killing pilot whales. For example, there was a reported case in False Bay, South Africa in 2015 where a great white shark was seen attacking and killing a pilot whale calf. While these cases are relatively rare, they do demonstrate that great white sharks are capable of attacking and killing pilot whales under the right circumstances.
