This behavior was virtually unheard of until this last decade. They're very intelligent animals, and normally gentle creatures with humans, so you do have to wonder what provoked this dramatic change.
that isn't true, as one who lived in Alaska on the sea coast, we were all aware of this and Orca are NOT gentle creatures, one needs to be aware of their territory. it is NOT a change. we kayak and we have to get along with them or they attack. they have been know to collapse house boats and floating homes depending on who lives there and what they have done. kinda like God actually...tf
We’ve known for some time now that these beautiful creatures possess intelligence which means memory and emotions. I don’t blame them one bit however if these boat owners are not guilty of any ill behaviour then I do feel for them. But the fact remains, nature is sending us a strong message. They’ve been hurt and they are learning.
I don't buy this "nature is sending a message" nonsense. If we went by nature rules we'd have killed off Orcas long ago, we are the Apex predator. We stop ourselves from killing everything.
I would imagine the orcas and aquatic animals don't care much for the sound of boat motors, let's not mention the exhaust that gets pumped into the water.
@@ceooflonelinessinc.267 i hope ur kidding lmao but um no the poor whales were hurt by other fishermens lines so now they look at boats as a threat to them
They are adapting to overfishing and people invading their home. They are protecting themselves and their families. Makes total sense. Why would you allow a potentially dangerous intruder in your house with your family?
That's a load of crap. If this was true, this would have been going on during the late 19th century and in the early 20th century, when there was actual unregulated overfishing and worldwide whaling still existed.
@@meatpopsicle1567 adaptation and evolution isn't immediate. When you look at how orcas have been exploited, hunted, and injured by humans for the past 200 years, it makes sense that now, the most aggressive have managed to survive and be over-represented in the current orca population. Orcas that trusted humans or were curious about humans were captured or killed (thus less opportunity to reproduce and pass those trusting natures along to future orcas) for making that mistake.
Remember, Orcas are some of the world's most intelligent animals...They know every boat may out to take thier food , pollute the water, snag one of the pack in thier nets, etc...I just think they're saying,"Stay outta our turf..you're a threat to us"
I am not one for superstition, but since the Russians have once trained a whale for espionage, it would not surprise me nor would it be out of impossibilities to say these whales have been trained by a human to attack, with or without intention. Edit: Sorry, not superstition, that is a wrong word to use. Conspiracy theory.
Love to see it….. I’m amazed it took this long for them to do this. They’re extremely intelligent and develop different cultural identities from other pods. This pod is looking like it’s found a new thing to add to their culture.
They will be wiped out for it before too long. All it takes is one wrong boat to be attacked and they will be exterminated for the safety of the public.
I don't blame the whales. They are intelligent. They are being hurt & showing revenge...it's amazing. Every living creature has emotions....the whales have had enough...wow😢
Where’s the proof? The guy says watch the mother and calf take turns ramming the ship but then doesn’t show them ramming the ship. I don’t believe anything the news say especially when it comes to stuff like this where they show no proof but twist words to scare people.
Emotions are great. But if you're so emotional that you swing on Mike Tyson because he bumped into you, they're counterproductive. Animal species that pick fights with humans are putting themselves on the FAFO matrix. The more they FA, the more they FO.
That’s attempted murder of a human being!! There have been lots of attacks. Trying to sink a boat while in the middle is an ocean is definitely Attempted Murder. The Orcas need to be sentenced to death as this as it is a learned behavior and could spread to other orcas!!
Anyone else here on the whales' side 🙋♀️ We're ruining their home, trapping and killing them in nets, hitting them with boats and motors. Of course they're pissed.
@dlight9849 I agree. And they very well have a right to be so! I have always waited for nature to finally fight back, can´t say I am very unhappy to see this happening. Humans think they own the world and would have a right to kill every other creature as they please. But the other creatures were here well before humans even evolved! They have much more right to be on this planet, than we have! It´s about time humans learn that lesson!
Terrifying animal. They’re intelligent, emotionally driven, can work effectively as a team of usually 15 individuals, has built in sonars and are very athletic in their element. They can weigh 10 tons and still jump 15 feet out of the water. Even sharks and whales are afraid of them. With that weight, speed and strength if they decide to gang up on a ship it won’t take much to destroy one.
If they wanted to, they could swim as a team to create a wave to flip the boat and spill the people, like other orcas have learned to use their wake to wash seals off of the safety of floating ice. Were quite lucky they don't think we are delicious.
It’s about time that animals hit back. Even now, they say that there are only about 40 orcas left in this pod. Think of how mercilessly we have treated these animals and how intelligent they are, - and how social they are as a species.
good for them? how so...? would you say that it is good for a rabbit to pick a fight with a coyote? nothing about this is good for these whales. certainly, fighting a losing battle won't be good for them.
@@JohnDoe-ew3xt If they learned this behavior, once something bad happens, they will learn not to do it anymore. What do you suggest sir? that we round them up and put them in re-education camps or something? get real. These creatures are smart. They will be fine. Maybe just maybe people will learn to leave them alone.
Being a sailor , I believe that the movement of the rudder is producing a sound that is very disturbing to the Orcas. I hope this message is seen by marine biologists and check out this possibility. All sail boats that have been sunk have had their rudders destroyed. Guillermo R. Arrazola Florida, USA
But it can also be that the rudders are just the weakest part of the sailboat and are the part most likely to be damaged. Boats and rudders have been around for a very long time But I suppose "Gladis Blanca" could have a dislike for the sound the rudders. The data could point to something these vessels have in common, I guess they need to look into the possibilities.
@@festungkurland9804 It does not necessarily have to be the rudder, there could be noise coming from the rudder control systems. I do not think that is what is occurring here, but a quick check on whether all these vessels have the same type of system would eliminate that. I still think that the rudders are all damaged because they are the weakest part and most easily damaged, rather than the cause of the ramming.
It's amazing and scary how smart the Orca is. The most part harmless? They are an apex predator for a reason. Odds are they are fighting back and trying to tell people to go away. It also looks like in the earlier part, the whales were testing/looking for weaknesses on the boats.
I believe they meant to humans specifically. There has been no documented case of a wild orca ever harming a human. It is only when they are confined in captivity that they have harmed people - which is something to blame humans for, not orcas.
there is nothing that can be done tho. humanity will protect itself in one way or another and all those 3rd world countries will start actively hunting these whales to its extinction instead of understanding why they do this. thats how it always went for these creatures and all the wiped out animals.
This makes me sad because normally these animals are not aggressive towards people so something happened probably more than once and now they're getting revenge. Can't say I blame them.
You should blame them. What they’re doing attacking innocent sailors is wrong and will just cause stigmas against orcas and cause boats to arm themselves and have no choice but to kill attacking orcas. If the orcas want war they will not win. Surrender and coexist with humans they should.
So you also agree we need to do a mass hunt of these orcas? Or you one of those "humans are evil" type of ugly girls? In which case why aren't you deleting yourself?
They orcas finally read _The Art of War:_ "When able to attack, we must seem unable; when using our forces, we must seem inactive; when we are near, we must make the enemy believe we are far away; when far away, we must make him believe we are near."
Nah, people don't care. I've been telling people for years that Killer whales understand revenge, and people always say "you saw that in a movie". The truly funny part is, if people knew how much of what's on tv was inspired by true events, they wouldn't sleep for a week.
As a horse owner and someone who lives in a rural locale with many animals all around, I have noticed that animals do take on attitudes of each other. They watch and mimic each other. I have seen one horse learn to turn on the lights of the barn, and soon thereafter, he's taught the others how to do that. I just wish the orcas would go after whalers and bring them down!!!
@@Mickey-rd5uo Actually, they do communicate, but believe it or not, Mickey, not in human language. But if you pay attention to animals, you can understand EXACTLY what they are thinking about!!!
@@horseygurl143 Why the fuck would they go after whalers? They don't take killer whales. Killer whales on the other hand kill whales just to eat their tongue you fool.
I love that Mother Nature is fighting back... most often our need to be on the water is recreational or for profit purposes, and we should be excited to see that the vessels that cause a lot of issues for the water's ecosystem are being checked. Sucks for the lively hoods or property being damaged, for sure, but hopefully this will bring some balance to the waters.
Actually, it's the end of days! Revelation mentions how animals will act strange and different. There will be signs in the skies. There will be disease, famine, debt, war, divide, and disasters like never seen before. Soon, most of humanity will be thrown into hell, and well deserved!!!
Yeah, when rats take over your house and your family die of leptospiral jaundice I'll be cheering on mother nature, whatever that is.Or is that different somehow? By the way, it's Newhaven, not New Haven and it's 800 miles from the Orca attacks. Quality reporting.

Truly shows the intelligence of these Orcas. One Cow Orca was apparently hit by a boat and injured. This it seemed enraged the Pod and they sought their revenge on boats that crossed their paths. Truly shows the intelligence of Orcas. 💪🏻🙏🏻✨
I wonder if the increased under water radar activity has anything to do with this? I imagine they are losing their minds every time a radar or sonar system is turned on.
My ex works for a company that makes secret stuff for the U.S. Navy. They must always design them to NOT transmit harmful sound/noise. They run many many many tests to ensure instruments are meeting this requirement. "Yes" I know it is probably not the priority for all who utilize the world's waters. But thought I would share that it is definitely a concern and some are committed to doing their part.
@@bicenulge765 It is not an amorphous "they" telling me the information it is a specific and singular "he".

These are highly intelligent animals that have shown the ability to act in coordinated ways it would not surprise me at all if these animals were targeting boats.
@@77Creation it’s not their home though. No animal has ownership over the ocean. It’s full of all kinds of animals. Orcas also live deep, they only come up to the surface occasionally.
Oh stop. 😂 let’s not advocate for all our whale/human war here. These whales stand no chance against our battleships. Even a WWI dreadnought could take them out easily. They couldn’t even win against a whaling vessel. The only solution is to peacefully exist. If an orca attacks an innocent human or vessel, then they will receive punishment by death. Unless they want to go to trial, but I don’t think they have the intelligence to negotiate. They should just mind their own business deep in the ocean.
These whales are fabulous creatures, and I'm sad that their numbers are decreasing. They must be expressing grief, as highly intelligent mammals with astonishing talents, and they will teach their young to defend themselves. I hope they'll be left alone!
@@alianoa36Highly unlikely. Orcas don't kill humans. Besides they are important to the ecological balance of the seas. Much more important than humans actually.
In the 1977 film Orca, the whale causes a bunch of damage in the cove where the fisherman that killed his mate lives. The whale taunts him and the villagers until he is forced to leave and face the whale's wrath at sea. Orcas are monogamous. They mate for life. They have long memories and their brains are much larger than ours. Their intelligence may easily surpass our own. They can communicate millions of pieces of information through sound in seconds to one another over hundreds of miles. They are very protective and territorial and will stay in an area where trauma has been caused for long periods of time until it's reconciled. Many coastal tribes have legends about the orca and how it has a vengeful warrior spirit.They are an apex predator being one of the, if not the most powerful animals on Earth. Not to mention, they have the patience of a saint. They may stalk their prey for days to weeks. As the old saying goes, it's not wise to fool with mother nature; and this particular earthling will fight to the death to protect it's family and it's pod.
Meh. I think it’s about time animals get their revenge in humans. Every day we mistreat them. We’ve take their family members from the wild and put them into zoos or aquariums or something. And every day we kill them and eat them. And every day we go into their territories whether it’s the ocean or forest. More animals need to rebel against us. Humans need to know they are not the only beings on this earth and that we are not the superior beings at the top even though we act like it. We are all equal, human and every other species no matter how big or small or no matter the diet. We are all equal and it’s high time all these animals get their revenge.
It's happened before, in the Pacific. The Essex, 1819 (inspiration for Moby Dick), but also, they have noticed that they seem to communicate to the others to avoid whaling ships
Killer whales swim in packs like wolves. It's totally normal for one to be a lil spicy and move the other women to follow suit. People say "oh someone hurt them" but it's just as likely that someone fed them from a boat and now they keep coming back for more
Yeah f those whales I don't believe in this ownership of property nonsense unless they exchange at least 50 shells for a property rights certificate. I can assure these particular whales most definitely have not and should be treated as reckless criminals.
@@dehavillandcanadatwinotter9621 W/out our boats we can't inhabit the sea for long. Many have tried. But yes, we could harpoon the lot of 'em in if we wanted to be pricks.
Tbh I prolly woulda just shot the shit out of it. I don’t know why people aren’t upset over the fact that the people in the boat are stuck in the orca infested, freezing ocean.
The orcas just now watched “Blackfish” and this is their revenge. Seriously though, some years back I read an article about a mother orca teaching her calf to hunt great whites. If not for the calf’s inexperience, the shark would’ve stood NO chance!
You’re correct. There are pods of Orcas which have been hunting Great White Sharks for their livers. NatGeo covered this near South Africa and Australia. So much for the myth, that the Great White’s only predator are humans.
@@BE60IFR Only a myth that has been perpetuated by Popular Culture. Many people in the zoological community, and just people that have been out at sea, have known that orcas have hunted great whites since we began recording these things. And they've obviously done it for millions of years.
There was a movie in the late 70s called Orca about an Orca getting revenge for his partner being killed by fisherman. I remember, seeing it as a kid. I remember feeling bad for the Orca. That movie got me thinking about how people treat animals.
I remember that movie. Saw it roughly the same time I watched Jaws. Had an irrational fear of orcas until I watched several documentaries on them. Now I have no fear if them; Great Whites? Not so much.
@@absontop If it’s the one I’m thinking of it was called “Orca, Killer Whale”. I cried my eyes out watching it as a kid and have loved Orca ever since.
Orcas have been one of my favourite species ever to grace this earth for quite some time now. The intelligence these things show us really is incredible. I could imagine if we had something as clever as these on land and we were not so advanced as we are now currently as humans that we may have struggled for survival. Imagine something with the levels of intelligence of these guys around on land at the same time we were still figuring out how to survive.
@@yevgeniyban765 Not to disagree too much, but we lost our protection after we were thrown out of the garden. So yeah, to some degree we had to learn to survive.
Wouldn't that be special? Nah, not at all. Anything as intelligent as humans have a severe dark side to them. So, you are wrong. Look at chimpanzees. They also are highly intelligent. They are also now evolving and killing their own kind. Just like humans. Rethink what you just said and think about what I just said.
This is heartbreaking and shows the lasting effects humans have on these beautiful whales. 😢❤. Hopefully we can use this as a motivator to be better and change the way they're treated by humans ❤
They are attacking sail boats, not commercial boats or motorboats. The Orcas are clearly pro fossil fuel. They likely want the ice caps to melt so they have more ocean to swim and hunt in, the clever monsters! The only way to save the planet is to kill all of them. It is what Greta Thunberg would want.
In the mid 1980's I experienced the opposite of this when I used to go out in my 22' cuddy cabin boat nearly every day all through the summer over a few years. Early the first year, I met a mother beluga whale with I believe her daughter beluga whale. When the mother came right up next to my boat in such a friendly way we could pat her on the head and she would gently rise up as high as my boat and was looking at everything in the boat and also in my cabin. Only two days later while out in this area, in the ocean just off of Jones Beach on long Island New York, just the daughter beluga whale came gently up to my boat this time. Doing mostly the same thing. Rising up inches to the side of my boat and again looking around and especially into my cuddy cabin. But this time I was alone and apparently so was she. I never again ever saw her mother again. Then only a few minutes later she gently sunk down under water and almost immediately came up on the other side of the boat inches away and gently rose up again. Enough to mostly look in the cabin again from this angle to see that I was truly alone this time. Then she huge out for quite a while sinking down and coming up with a huge jelly first that mostly filled her mouth. Then she gently closed her mouth eating it. And she circled my boat a number of times while swimming around, rolling and stuff. It truly felt like she was enjoying my company and me watching her, giving her my attention. This went on for quite a while. Maybe a half hour or even an hour. It was very cool and I enjoyed it. Then the next day when was in the ocean and around 3 or more miles farther put and about 3 miles farther east down the beach. Farther from the Freeport inlet. There she was again, as I noticed her heading my way, as I was just floating around out there as I liked to do. And again, she started by coming right up to the boat, rising up and looking around and into the cabin. Then right away, moving over to the other side to again get in the best position to see into the cabin and confirm I was alone as I most always was and would be, as she would would repeat this almost ever time I was out in the ocean in all different locations up and down the beach and at all different distances and sometimes quite a distance in miles from the beaches past the shipping channels and she'd come again and again to see me and hang out. Swimming around, eating jellyfish, doing different things and showing off. As I'd be sunning myself laying out on the bow of my boat and reading a book or pouring water from from my pail all over my body, cooling off and hanging out, or doing other things in my boat. She aways seemed as interested in what I was doing as I was about what she was doing. On some days she'd leave and swim back again one or more time over the hours I'd be out there. On some days she'd stay pretty close for easily an hour or more, maybe heading away and back again. I'd definitely say, we had some kind of a friendship with both of us enjoying the other's company and watching what each other were doing. This happened for around 5 or 6 months every summertime for the next three years. I definitely began to miss her and wonder about her on the forth year, because I had gotten married and moved to a more southern state. She had truly become an enjoyable part of my life. A friendship like no other. I aways thought she must recognize the unique sound my engine to find me. It was a friendship of mutual enjoyment of spending time with another happy being. No language needed. But I'm sure she could see the happiness on my face and the wonder in my eyes, as I felt I was seeing these same reactions in her. I can only hope she's still alive and happy all these years later. I do know it's possible. I'm also believer there are many wild animals in nature where we can share these simple mutual friendships, because I also believe I've had other I won't go into now. I recommend for others to simply slow down. Be patient with and around wildlife and just enjoying their presence from whatever distance. And sometimes they may find you as interesting, calm and friendly and want to observe you in their way and you just my get the chance to share each other's experiences for a time. And if they enjoy you enough. They too may desire to do it again and again. I've noticed over the years as I've enjoyed so many hours just tinkering around in and around my garden and property. That there are birds and all kinds of other animals that also live right there. It's there home too. Once they feel and trust that you won't ever want to harm or hurt them. And your just doing whatever you're doing. You may start to realize they don't fear getting closer and closer to you as they too just go about living their lives. Over time the local birds keep an eye open, watching when they see I'm digging and moving dirt and plants around. Just waiting for me to uncover or scare bugs worms from the soil, and don't hesitate to fly right close to me. Maybe within inches to pick off a tasty snack. These too, are friendship of a different kind, and also enjoyable. ENJOY
These orcas have finally had it. Every creature on earth has a tipping point. We are just seeing what one orca can do and getting her friends to join in. Orcas are smart and amazing. Whoever injured this Orca the other people in boats are paying for this tragedy.
I think the trauma hypothesis is a good one. Potentially trying to communicate with us to about our behaviour. I am reading a book on Stanford machine learning experts trying to decipher whale language, and so far they believe it is more complex than most of our languages. And that the first thing they will be asked once they can communicate is for whale rights, similar to human rights. Whales in general have emotional centres 4x larger than humans proportionally. So seemingly have a lot more compassion, empathy and patience than us. However, after hundreds of years of us destroying their homes maybe they are trying a new method to communicate.
Locals said that there is a lot of illegal tuna fishing happen for the last decade which mean a lot of fish carcases thrown in to the sea not happen with legal fishing Orcas either learn how to get a free meal by harassing the boats or those illegal fishermen killed some orcas while competing for tuna.
I'm wondering whether sound waves, electronic frequencies, and perhaps also the use of batteries could possibly contribute to the behavior. Considering the drive for "cleaner" energy and technology in the past decade. I'm no expert but some or most sail boats are also fitted fitted with devices that cause vibration on the hull to prevent sealife from clinging on.
This is the 4th seal opened in the Bible in the book of Revelation. "And I looked, and behold, a pale horse: and his name that sat on it was Death, and Hell followed with him.

This is happening with wildlife all over the earth and will begin happening with domesticated ones as well. The war that is brewing between the US and Russia will be the sword, the escalating global famine will be hunger, and many other things will take place that will kill many. All these things, including the uptick of unprovoked animal attacks is happening because God is purging His earth of humanity.

If we bare His image and likeness, it logically follows that He first possessed the ability to have children and this was passed on to humanity. We are His children.

from a sailor's perspective. We do not harm anyone. This seems to be a particular pot of orcas near Portugal/ Gibraltar and the big question is how to stop it without hurting them before lives are lost. I understand they're specifically attacking the spade rudders most sailboats have, Maybe there is something about that shape that triggers the attack. And maybe that is also the solution to the problem? a changed shape, colors, or such? I don't have the answer. For us, it would be to stay out of that known area as far as possible. I wonder if there are any other reports of orcas attacking sailboats in other places. I have never heard of it anyway, hence this is a rather peculiar behavior.
I agree there's some trauma involved here..orcas are extremely intelligent and remember past traumas ...cant blame them..we are in their environment....we go into their home for fun and get mad if something happens...that's just asinine.
@@Maspets if an idiot in a boat hurt a pod member..I don't blame them..ever hear the old adage fool me once shame on you...twice shame on me....orcas just learn faster then humans. .boats equal pain....so they sink them..sounds pretty damn intelligent to me.

Try thinking before you write nonsense.
@@Maspets - MagaSpets, you seriously need some education. It has plenty to do with intelligence. You are just too proud of your human self to realize it.
This originated from Spanish fishermen hurting/attacking the whales and since then there had been sailboats attacked and damaged by whales around Spain, quite a few, ask the cruising sailing community. Now it seems to have spread and has become an intrenched culture among the orca communities.
There are 2 theories about this behaviour: 1. The iberian pod of orcas, as an animal that likes to play en challenge itself, has found a new "sport" and it is kind of a game for them. 2) (the most probable option): A member of that pod of orcas experienced a traumatic event with a boat, so now they see the boats as "a danger or a problem". We cannot ask them so it is not 100% sure which of those. Orcas are usually very kind and curious about humans. There are 0 Orca attacks in history, 0! So a person in the water should not be worried. But... If those orcas associate boats as a problem, would not be a good sign if they associate boats with humans. They are smart animals and if they saw humans as a problem, that could be very, very crazy, but for now it didn't happen, and encountring a group of wild Orcas is the safest thing can happen, as you can be sure that there won't be any shark around...
@ yeah good luck with that you can't do that in the United States waters you may be able to do that in international waters but you can't do that here. The orca whale is sacred here.
Did you know Hugo the killer whale committed suicide? He would swim full throttle at the walls of his pool; he did that until he fractured his skull, and died. There's something unforgivable about that. Sea World still exists.
Absolutley!!! Nature will fight back! 😢 did they not think as intelligent as they are they would figure out how to survive humans making a mockery out of them?!
Intelligent? It’s stupid to attack humans. If anything this will warrant retaliation and these whales will be culled. Don’t mess with humans. Our battleships and submarines can easily kill killer whales. It’s like bombing Russia, it’s a stupid move that will result in more damage towards everyone.
It’s the keels of those boats. All of the boats involved are sailboats with keels, which most definitely produce a sound frequency. During my last Atlantic crossing, the dolphins that swam alongside the boat could equally be heard below deck through the Kevlar hull of the boat, - and they were definitely zeroed in on the boat’s massive bulb keel.
In 1972 the Robinson Family aboard their yacht Lucette was sunk by Killer Whales in the South Pacific. Their harrowing story of being adrift for 38 days is a great read. I think it was turned into a movie.
I adore them one of the most beautiful sea mammals I've ever seen. Pains me a lot to realize the male here in Mexico city, called Keiko, was supposed to be rescued and they lied to us in the news saying he was going to be released and ended up being exploited the rest of his life in Sea World and many countries until he even killed a trainer out of stress. I don't even remember what they did to him after that, the documentary was too painful to watch I wouldn't dare watching again. He was also used to inseminate females and provide baby orcas which were born in captivity and were exploited later. That animal was my favorite thing in the world as a kid and they tortured hin, damn they!

They are tired of humans in their ocean. It’s like going to someone’s house, breaking up their stuff and expecting the host to say thank you. Humans just act up and take over and expect no consequences. They learned that day!
People are seriously placing guilt on sailers?! Why on earth would anyone intentionally hit an orca with their boat?! Do they want to sink their own boat?! I pray for the safety for both orcas and sailers. Hopefully they can prevent these attacks with a some deterrent some sort of harmless method. They are attacking small vulnerable boats not the stronger fishing boats which is clearly a sign of violent bullying and must be traumatising for the crew on board
sailers don't hit them on purpose, usually they do it out of pure negligence. But it leaves only the Orca injured, as the boat being damaged is not a living thing being injured. Besides, it's likely that some people out there aren't in the right mind and they are actively attaching Orca, in many places people hint Orca, I suspect Orca can't tell the difference between most humans and boats and many are starting to see them all as threats. Now when you actually look at the size of the boats they're attacking, you'll see the boats might not be the biggest boats in the sea but they're still allot bigger than the Orca, it's not like the Orca are only destroying canoes 😂 or something, they're attacking vessels that are physically much bigger than them, so it's hardly "bullying". And as for looking for some sort of deterrent, this is probably the Orca using a deterrent on us humans, maybe those sailers should get the hint and leave?
No reports I read about Gloria's injuries say that the boat hit her intentionally. Where did you get that from? Did they say that in this video? Maybe I missed it.
Reporter: Killer whales are, for the most part, pretty harmless. Seal: Uh, did I miss something? Orca: No, but you'll be missing half your body when I get a hold of you.
"Killer whales are, for the most part, pretty harmless." after watching video of the whales destroying boats, then hearing the reporter make this statement, I was reminded of those "mostly peaceful, but fiery protests.."
@@danni1993 "Are you speaking about the "peaceful protest" at the United States Capitol?"
no, that was a violent armed insurrection...

If they get too out of hand, well, use your imagination with humans behind the handling of it. It would be unfortunate, but if you want to be somewhere safely, you have to do certain things.
Typical sailors are use to dangers at seas. Kill the orca pods so that Jeff Bezos can feel comfortable sailing his yacht to the Greek islands? I'm on board with that.
At this point, I worry about the orcas' rostrums, and the orca that has a traumatic past. Such soulful creatures that deserve better from those who share this planet.
@@friggus795 If this pod keeps doing this it might be what ends up happening. Can't have animals sinking boats because eventually people are going to die. Once that happens I hate to say it but this pod will not be in a good situation at all then.
As much as I love orcas this isn't a good move for them, if they keep sinking boats I can see them being hunted, which is not good. I hope I'm wrong though.
Completely agree. When this group starts killing people and sinking lots of small boats like sailing vessels or pleasure craft they will be actively hunted and put down. Just like when a panther or coyote kills a human venturing in a neighborhood, the animal responsible is tracked and put down to prevent learned behavior from spreading. The same was done with "rogue" sharks where a specific individual acquired a taste for human flesh or more likely learned how easy people were to hunt. Although the latter was troublesome for sharks as short of cutting open the stomach there was no way to verify human predation. Many thousands of sharks were hunted during unhinged hunts especially during the 60s, 70s and early 80s until government stepped in. Orcas are heavily protected though and you also have animal lobbies that'll defend them even if they kill 20 people completely unprovoked. Worst case would be frustration among people and victims' families fueling vigilante hunts due to non-action from authorities. Precarious situation indeed.
I hope some people don't use this as an excuse to go after them. They have been through a lot because of humans already. Capture, loss of food and injury from boats.
That is wild! We were in a tiny fishing boat off La Paz..off Baja. We saw three very tall dorsal fins coming for us…they went under boat..came beside us…breached..it was crazy. They had a baby…left after a few minutes…years ago

Whales don't have homes because they're....whales. By that logic i should be going round burning cars and trashing stuff because land is my 'home' and no one else is allowed on it.
I'm from Spain, I read about these events in Spanish waters and there was another alternative theory which is far more credible from my POV: an orca is teaching others to hunt using the rudders of small boats. BTW, we are not invading their territory, the strait of Gibraltar has been one of the busiest and most important maritime routes in the world for centuries.
"we are not invading their territory, the strait of Gibraltar has been one of the busiest and most important maritime routes in the world for centuries." ^--- this statement is self contradictory dude You are literally saying "we are not doing X, we have been doing X for HUNDREDS of years!"
In fact based on some nature documentaries they know how to hunt and are extremely intelligent. They hunt seals by capsizing the iceberg and this looks also like one of their coordinated attacks.
This behavior was virtually unheard of until this last decade. They're very intelligent animals, and normally gentle creatures with humans, so you do have to wonder what provoked this dramatic change.
War
that isn't true, as one who lived in Alaska on the sea coast, we were all aware of this and Orca are NOT gentle creatures, one needs to be aware of their territory. it is NOT a change. we kayak and we have to get along with them or they attack. they have been know to collapse house boats and floating homes depending on who lives there and what they have done. kinda like God actually...tf

@@DappSwap ..or idiots?
There was a Orca that was traumatized by boaters recently and they said it seems since then.. theyve started sinking boats... That she taught them!
We’ve known for some time now that these beautiful creatures possess intelligence which means memory and emotions. I don’t blame them one bit however if these boat owners are not guilty of any ill behaviour then I do feel for them. But the fact remains, nature is sending us a strong message. They’ve been hurt and they are learning.
Agreed 💯
I don't buy this "nature is sending a message" nonsense. If we went by nature rules we'd have killed off Orcas long ago, we are the Apex predator. We stop ourselves from killing everything.

I would imagine the orcas and aquatic animals don't care much for the sound of boat motors, let's not mention the exhaust that gets pumped into the water.
@@williammcginley3004 How about M-80's?Think they'd like that?🤭
They'd probably start associating boats with that noise and swim away.🤷♂️
The problem could also be over-fishing , the Orca could be associating the loss of food with boats .
💡
It's more that they see fishing boats as mere competition.
That's why I suspect there've been increasing shark attacks as well. It really isn't hard to not eat fish.
Or maybe they're mad about global warming You f****** idiot will believe anything that you're told won't you
maybe its more like " HEY GIVE US FOOD" maybe they know that where the boat is there is a lot of fish in the net

@@ceooflonelinessinc.267 i hope ur kidding lmao but um no the poor whales were hurt by other fishermens lines so now they look at boats as a threat to them
They are adapting to overfishing and people invading their home. They are protecting themselves and their families. Makes total sense. Why would you allow a potentially dangerous intruder in your house with your family?
That's a load of crap. If this was true, this would have been going on during the late 19th century and in the early 20th century, when there was actual unregulated overfishing and worldwide whaling still existed.
Not to forget the pollution. Those yachts and boats release enormous amounts of oil into the water.
@@meatpopsicle1567 adaptation and evolution isn't immediate. When you look at how orcas have been exploited, hunted, and injured by humans for the past 200 years, it makes sense that now, the most aggressive have managed to survive and be over-represented in the current orca population. Orcas that trusted humans or were curious about humans were captured or killed (thus less opportunity to reproduce and pass those trusting natures along to future orcas) for making that mistake.

Love to see it….. I’m amazed it took this long for them to do this. They’re extremely intelligent and develop different cultural identities from other pods. This pod is looking like it’s found a new thing to add to their culture.

@dlight9849 I agree. And they very well have a right to be so! I have always waited for nature to finally fight back, can´t say I am very unhappy to see this happening. Humans think they own the world and would have a right to kill every other creature as they please. But the other creatures were here well before humans even evolved! They have much more right to be on this planet, than we have! It´s about time humans learn that lesson!
Right, and how many have we stolen from their natural homes, imprisoned and tortured! Shamu's revenge? Remember "Blackfish", "Orca", "Free Willy"
I typed kinda the same thing. We are provoking them, not the other way around.
totally.
Terrifying animal. They’re intelligent, emotionally driven, can work effectively as a team of usually 15 individuals, has built in sonars and are very athletic in their element. They can weigh 10 tons and still jump 15 feet out of the water. Even sharks and whales are afraid of them. With that weight, speed and strength if they decide to gang up on a ship it won’t take much to destroy one.
If they wanted to, they could swim as a team to create a wave to flip the boat and spill the people, like other orcas have learned to use their wake to wash seals off of the safety of floating ice. Were quite lucky they don't think we are delicious.
It’s about time that animals hit back. Even now, they say that there are only about 40 orcas left in this pod. Think of how mercilessly we have treated these animals and how intelligent they are, - and how social they are as a species.

Being a sailor , I believe that the movement of the rudder is producing a sound that is very disturbing to the Orcas. I hope this message is seen by marine biologists and check out this possibility. All sail boats that have been sunk have had their rudders destroyed.
Guillermo R. Arrazola
Florida, USA
But it can also be that the rudders are just the weakest part of the sailboat and are the part most likely to be damaged. Boats and rudders have been around for a very long time But I suppose "Gladis Blanca" could have a dislike for the sound the rudders. The data could point to something these vessels have in common, I guess they need to look into the possibilities.
wtf a rudder does not make sound lol
@@festungkurland9804 It does not necessarily have to be the rudder, there could be noise coming from the rudder control systems.
I do not think that is what is occurring here, but a quick check on whether all these vessels have the same type of system would eliminate that.
I still think that the rudders are all damaged because they are the weakest part and most easily damaged, rather than the cause of the ramming.
Rubbish, the boats have had the same rudders for decades.
Anything with moving parts can make sound. It may just be ultra sonic and we can not hear it.

It's amazing and scary how smart the Orca is. The most part harmless? They are an apex predator for a reason. Odds are they are fighting back and trying to tell people to go away. It also looks like in the earlier part, the whales were testing/looking for weaknesses on the boats.
Yea I heard that part too. I said to myself harmless from home on the sofa
I believe they meant to humans specifically. There has been no documented case of a wild orca ever harming a human. It is only when they are confined in captivity that they have harmed people - which is something to blame humans for, not orcas.
fisherman are like farmers. 2-legged barbarian devils that think it's okay to exploit and murder them......
there is nothing that can be done tho. humanity will protect itself in one way or another and all those 3rd world countries will start actively hunting these whales to its extinction instead of understanding why they do this. thats how it always went for these creatures and all the wiped out animals.
@@satunnainenkatselija4478 what pieces?
This makes me sad because normally these animals are not aggressive towards people so something happened probably more than once and now they're getting revenge. Can't say I blame them.
You should blame them. What they’re doing attacking innocent sailors is wrong and will just cause stigmas against orcas and cause boats to arm themselves and have no choice but to kill attacking orcas.
If the orcas want war they will not win. Surrender and coexist with humans they should.
They molest fish
So you also agree we need to do a mass hunt of these orcas? Or you one of those "humans are evil" type of ugly girls? In which case why aren't you deleting yourself?
@user-lr9mo9my6jHell yeah. I say we kill them all.
I read somewhere that the "queen"/mother orca was hit by a boat and either seriously injured or killed.
The orcas all had headphones and were listening to _We're Not Gonna Take It_ by Twisted Sister 😂
I'm surprised it took them this long
🎯
They probably just watched Black Fish.
They orcas finally read _The Art of War:_ "When able to attack, we must seem unable; when using our forces, we must seem inactive; when we are near, we must make the enemy believe we are far away; when far away, we must make him believe we are near."
Unfortunately It will just backfire, humans are more dangerous than any orcas out there
Revenge is clearly a emotion ingrained in mother nature itself. I hope no killer whales are culled in response.
Nah, people don't care. I've been telling people for years that Killer whales understand revenge, and people always say "you saw that in a movie". The truly funny part is, if people knew how much of what's on tv was inspired by true events, they wouldn't sleep for a week.

Watch the 1970s film, "Orca". You will never want to harm an Orca ever again.
In the 1977 film Orca, the whale causes a bunch of damage in the cove where the fisherman that killed his mate lives. The whale taunts him and the villagers until he is forced to leave and face the whale's wrath at sea. Orcas are monogamous. They mate for life. They have long memories and their brains are much larger than ours. Their intelligence may easily surpass our own. They can communicate millions of pieces of information through sound in seconds to one another over hundreds of miles. They are very protective and territorial and will stay in an area where trauma has been caused for long periods of time until it's reconciled. Many coastal tribes have legends about the orca and how it has a vengeful warrior spirit.They are an apex predator being one of the, if not the most powerful animals on Earth. Not to mention, they have the patience of a saint. They may stalk their prey for days to weeks.

This shows how clearly they're trying to defend themselves. So intelligent ❤ I pray they find protection from us through this awareness.
Why don't we stop harassing them in their oceans? They are beautiful, family oriented and really are our friends until we started killing them.
no they will just get retaliation.
Not smart because they are going to be killed very soon
@@JustMeBlindFreddy Unfortunately yeah, the human way.
Tbh I prolly woulda just shot the shit out of it. I don’t know why people aren’t upset over the fact that the people in the boat are stuck in the orca infested, freezing ocean.
I'm sorry, but this is awesome
The orcas just now watched “Blackfish” and this is their revenge. Seriously though, some years back I read an article about a mother orca teaching her calf to hunt great whites. If not for the calf’s inexperience, the shark would’ve stood NO chance!
You’re correct. There are pods of Orcas which have been hunting Great White Sharks for their livers. NatGeo covered this near South Africa and Australia. So much for the myth, that the Great White’s only predator are humans.
Yes!
Yes yes yes
@@BE60IFR Only a myth that has been perpetuated by Popular Culture. Many people in the zoological community, and just people that have been out at sea, have known that orcas have hunted great whites since we began recording these things. And they've obviously done it for millions of years.
There was a movie in the late 70s called Orca about an Orca getting revenge for his partner being killed by fisherman. I remember, seeing it as a kid. I remember feeling bad for the Orca. That movie got me thinking about how people treat animals.
yes, i think i saw that movie as well, what was it called, i forgot?
I remember that movie. Saw it roughly the same time I watched Jaws. Had an irrational fear of orcas until I watched several documentaries on them. Now I have no fear if them; Great Whites? Not so much.
@@absontop The title of the movie is Orca.
@@absontop If it’s the one I’m thinking of it was called “Orca, Killer Whale”. I cried my eyes out watching it as a kid and have loved Orca ever since.
It's called free willy 😊
Orcas have been one of my favourite species ever to grace this earth for quite some time now. The intelligence these things show us really is incredible. I could imagine if we had something as clever as these on land and we were not so advanced as we are now currently as humans that we may have struggled for survival. Imagine something with the levels of intelligence of these guys around on land at the same time we were still figuring out how to survive.
We never had to learn to survive,
We were created with authority over the animals
@@yevgeniyban765
Not to disagree too much, but we lost our protection after we were thrown out of the garden. So yeah, to some degree we had to learn to survive.
@@chuckaddison5134 ok, I see what you're saying
Wouldn't that be special? Nah, not at all. Anything as intelligent as humans have a severe dark side to them. So, you are wrong. Look at chimpanzees. They also are highly intelligent. They are also now evolving and killing their own kind. Just like humans. Rethink what you just said and think about what I just said.
Of course we have to learn to survive. Just like every other living being.
This is heartbreaking and shows the lasting effects humans have on these beautiful whales. 😢❤. Hopefully we can use this as a motivator to be better and change the way they're treated by humans ❤
They are attacking sail boats, not commercial boats or motorboats. The Orcas are clearly pro fossil fuel. They likely want the ice caps to melt so they have more ocean to swim and hunt in, the clever monsters!
The only way to save the planet is to kill all of them. It is what Greta Thunberg would want.
You're jumping to a lot of conclusions here. We don't know what's happening or why. You're speculating.
@@DeuceGenius You have to look at the facts. The facts are they clearly only attack sailboats.
@@DeuceGenius true. Maybe there is another reason, I just don't know what it might be.

In the mid 1980's I experienced the opposite of this when I used to go out in my 22' cuddy cabin boat nearly every day all through the summer over a few years.
Early the first year, I met a mother beluga whale with I believe her daughter beluga whale. When the mother came right up next to my boat in such a friendly way we could pat her on the head and she would gently rise up as high as my boat and was looking at everything in the boat and also in my cabin.
Only two days later while out in this area, in the ocean just off of Jones Beach on long Island New York, just the daughter beluga whale came gently up to my boat this time. Doing mostly the same thing. Rising up inches to the side of my boat and again looking around and especially into my cuddy cabin.
But this time I was alone and apparently so was she.
I never again ever saw her mother again.
Then only a few minutes later she gently sunk down under water and almost immediately came up on the other side of the boat inches away and gently rose up again. Enough to mostly look in the cabin again from this angle to see that I was truly alone this time.
Then she huge out for quite a while sinking down and coming up with a huge jelly first that mostly filled her mouth. Then she gently closed her mouth eating it. And she circled my boat a number of times while swimming around, rolling and stuff.
It truly felt like she was enjoying my company and me watching her, giving her my attention.
This went on for quite a while. Maybe a half hour or even an hour.
It was very cool and I enjoyed it.
Then the next day when was in the ocean and around 3 or more miles farther put and about 3 miles farther east down the beach. Farther from the Freeport inlet.
There she was again, as I noticed her heading my way, as I was just floating around out there as I liked to do.
And again, she started by coming right up to the boat, rising up and looking around and into the cabin. Then right away, moving over to the other side to again get in the best position to see into the cabin and confirm I was alone as I most always was and would be, as she would would repeat this almost ever time I was out in the ocean in all different locations up and down the beach and at all different distances and sometimes quite a distance in miles from the beaches past the shipping channels and she'd come again and again to see me and hang out.
Swimming around, eating jellyfish, doing different things and showing off.
As I'd be sunning myself laying out on the bow of my boat and reading a book or pouring water from from my pail all over my body, cooling off and hanging out, or doing other things in my boat.
She aways seemed as interested in what I was doing as I was about what she was doing.
On some days she'd leave and swim back again one or more time over the hours I'd be out there.
On some days she'd stay pretty close for easily an hour or more, maybe heading away and back again.
I'd definitely say, we had some kind of a friendship with both of us enjoying the other's company and watching what each other were doing.
This happened for around 5 or 6 months every summertime for the next three years.
I definitely began to miss her and wonder about her on the forth year, because I had gotten married and moved to a more southern state.
She had truly become an enjoyable part of my life.
A friendship like no other.
I aways thought she must recognize the unique sound my engine to find me.
It was a friendship of mutual enjoyment of spending time with another happy being.
No language needed.
But I'm sure she could see the happiness on my face and the wonder in my eyes, as I felt I was seeing these same reactions in her.
I can only hope she's still alive and happy all these years later. I do know it's possible.
I'm also believer there are many wild animals in nature where we can share these simple mutual friendships, because I also believe I've had other I won't go into now.
I recommend for others to simply slow down. Be patient with and around wildlife and just enjoying their presence from whatever distance.
And sometimes they may find you as interesting, calm and friendly and want to observe you in their way and you just my get the chance to share each other's experiences for a time.
And if they enjoy you enough. They too may desire to do it again and again.
I've noticed over the years as I've enjoyed so many hours just tinkering around in and around my garden and property.
That there are birds and all kinds of other animals that also live right there. It's there home too.
Once they feel and trust that you won't ever want to harm or hurt them.
And your just doing whatever you're doing.
You may start to realize they don't fear getting closer and closer to you as they too just go about living their lives.
Over time the local birds keep an eye open, watching when they see I'm digging and moving dirt and plants around.
Just waiting for me to uncover or scare bugs worms from the soil, and don't hesitate to fly right close to me. Maybe within inches to pick off a tasty snack.
These too, are friendship of a different kind, and also enjoyable.
ENJOY
Thank you for sharing! That's beautiful ❤️
Beautiful ❤
What a wonderful and special friendship!
Where were you with the Beluga ?
You didn't have to write a dissertation, didn't enjoy
Sailing in luxury boats is not a priority, the sea is their home.
Protecting their family and taking their home back!!!!
These orcas have finally had it. Every creature on earth has a tipping point. We are just seeing what one orca can do and getting her friends to join in. Orcas are smart and amazing. Whoever injured this Orca the other people in boats are paying for this tragedy.
I think the trauma hypothesis is a good one. Potentially trying to communicate with us to about our behaviour. I am reading a book on Stanford machine learning experts trying to decipher whale language, and so far they believe it is more complex than most of our languages. And that the first thing they will be asked once they can communicate is for whale rights, similar to human rights. Whales in general have emotional centres 4x larger than humans proportionally. So seemingly have a lot more compassion, empathy and patience than us. However, after hundreds of years of us destroying their homes maybe they are trying a new method to communicate.
Excellent
I agree
Playing the humans at their own game....
Locals said that there is a lot of illegal tuna fishing happen for the last decade which mean a lot of fish carcases thrown in to the sea not happen with legal fishing
Orcas either learn how to get a free meal by harassing the boats or those illegal fishermen killed some orcas while competing for tuna.
Aggression is the language of capitalism, which the orcas are learning to speak.
I'm wondering whether sound waves, electronic frequencies, and perhaps also the use of batteries could possibly contribute to the behavior. Considering the drive for "cleaner" energy and technology in the past decade.
I'm no expert but some or most sail boats are also fitted fitted with devices that cause vibration on the hull to prevent sealife from clinging on.
I sailed alone down that coast 20 years ago, before this behaviour started. I saw three orcas 80 miles off Mauritania and only felt wonder.
U can keep feeling wonder. They are wonderful animals.
This is the 4th seal opened in the Bible in the book of Revelation.
"And I looked, and behold, a pale horse: and his name that sat on it was Death, and Hell followed with him. And power was given unto them over the fourth part of the earth, to kill with the sword, and with hunger, and with death and with the beasts of the earth." -Revelation 6:8
Death by beasts of the earth is beginning to happen now where wild animal are losing their fear of humanity are turned against us. This is happening with wildlife all over the earth and will begin happening with domesticated ones as well. The war that is brewing between the US and Russia will be the sword, the escalating global famine will be hunger, and many other things will take place that will kill many. All these things, including the uptick of unprovoked animal attacks is happening because God is purging His earth of humanity. Those who accept the work of His son on the cross to save them from their sins will be saved. The rest will perish. Repent = a change of mind. Repent! Accept the love that your Creator has shown you. Give your life to Jesus the Christ. Please do this now. A few precious moments remain
You are a father and mother because God was first a Father. If we bare His image and likeness, it logically follows that He first possessed the ability to have children and this was passed on to humanity. We are His children.
More warnings: This is why Beyonce took pictures on those different color horses, including a pale horse. These are all warnings of horsemen of the apacalypse. All have been warned. There will be hellfire to pay and the world is not prepared for it.
A Wake up Call to humans from nature ❤
from a sailor's perspective. We do not harm anyone. This seems to be a particular pot of orcas near Portugal/ Gibraltar and the big question is how to stop it without hurting them before lives are lost. I understand they're specifically attacking the spade rudders most sailboats have, Maybe there is something about that shape that triggers the attack. And maybe that is also the solution to the problem? a changed shape, colors, or such? I don't have the answer. For us, it would be to stay out of that known area as far as possible. I wonder if there are any other reports of orcas attacking sailboats in other places. I have never heard of it anyway, hence this is a rather peculiar behavior.
Someone with common sense.
Do you think it's the sound? Or the whale got cut from the rudder?
Ya you stay out of their home areas!!! How would you feel if I moved into your home and did not respect you????
Thanks for the sober analysis. Tired of all the knee-jerk horse shit.
@@kellystiburk4385 I'd shoot ya?????
I agree there's some trauma involved here..orcas are extremely intelligent and remember past traumas ...cant blame them..we are in their environment....we go into their home for fun and get mad if something happens...that's just asinine.
That has nothing to do with "intelligence."
@@Maspets if an idiot in a boat hurt a pod member..I don't blame them..ever hear the old adage fool me once shame on you...twice shame on me....orcas just learn faster then humans.

@@lesliecalvert3458 Okay maybe you're not intelligent enough to learn that something bad should be removed, but most human beings certainly are. We've literally wiped out countless species that have annoyed us in any way. Orcas on the other hand that have actually been attacked by humans have not exhibited this behavior. Try thinking before you write nonsense.
@@Maspets - MagaSpets, you seriously need some education. It has plenty to do with intelligence. You are just too proud of your human self to realize it.
Yes. They are like elephants. Then people wonder why elephants go on rampages.
This originated from Spanish fishermen hurting/attacking the whales and since then there had been sailboats attacked and damaged by whales around Spain, quite a few, ask the cruising sailing community. Now it seems to have spread and has become an intrenched culture among the orca communities.
These creatures are so smart. They are protecting themselves.
Yep - they can see where things are headed
How so?
No you dumb hippie they are attacking boats unprovoked.
Basically they want humanity stay at home...!! AKA AGENDA 2030 IN FULL ACTION..

they need to be put down , killed with cold blood .
Do you hate humans?
Glad for the whales , finally fighting back 🤙🏽
Sailboats aren't normally injuring orcas though. It's bigger boats and ships.
They need to start attacking FISHING boats that steal their food source. I would support them and cheer them on for doing that.
There Dolphins
glad for them?
how so...?
would you say that it is good for a rabbit to pick a fight with a coyote?
nothing about this is good for these whales. certainly, fighting a losing battle won't be good for them.
@SABRITONEZ Idiot, you want these people harmed?
They know we are destroying their food sources, and they are giving us polite warnings to get the f out of the water.
We should listen.
There are 2 theories about this behaviour: 1. The iberian pod of orcas, as an animal that likes to play en challenge itself, has found a new "sport" and it is kind of a game for them. 2) (the most probable option): A member of that pod of orcas experienced a traumatic event with a boat, so now they see the boats as "a danger or a problem". We cannot ask them so it is not 100% sure which of those.
Orcas are usually very kind and curious about humans. There are 0 Orca attacks in history, 0! So a person in the water should not be worried. But... If those orcas associate boats as a problem, would not be a good sign if they associate boats with humans. They are smart animals and if they saw humans as a problem, that could be very, very crazy, but for now it didn't happen, and encountring a group of wild Orcas is the safest thing can happen, as you can be sure that there won't be any shark around...
They have always known that humans are onboard the boats. They have eyes. They see them. And hear them.
Man I'm so glad they are smart enough to defend there lives and home from those who wish harm them
Nobody is harming them
Not really smart. This behavior will get them exterminated.
The orcas may be associating those ships with the ones who did hurt them and/or kidnap their babies
@ yeah good luck with that you can't do that in the United States waters you may be able to do that in international waters but you can't do that here. The orca whale is sacred here.
Tell me how any of the boat crew harmed them.
Did you know Hugo the killer whale committed suicide? He would swim full throttle at the walls of his pool; he did that until he fractured his skull, and died.
There's something unforgivable about that.

Intelligent? It’s stupid to attack humans. If anything this will warrant retaliation and these whales will be culled. Don’t mess with humans. Our battleships and submarines can easily kill killer whales.
It’s like bombing Russia, it’s a stupid move that will result in more damage towards everyone.
No they have that name for a reason. They are intelligent hunters.
THE Apex predator.
This story just breaks my heart even further. They are upset and i dont blame them one bit....disgusting world
Some assholes on boats must have been messing with them.
They aren’t whales they are the biggest dolphins in the ocean
It’s the keels of those boats. All of the boats involved are sailboats with keels, which most definitely produce a sound frequency. During my last Atlantic crossing, the dolphins that swam alongside the boat could equally be heard below deck through the Kevlar hull of the boat, - and they were definitely zeroed in on the boat’s massive bulb keel.
There was a movie back in the mid 70’s called Orca. A killer orca went after boats in a revengeful attack after his mate was killed.
Yeah he got the guy on the ice floe.
In 1972 the Robinson Family aboard their yacht Lucette was sunk by Killer Whales in the South Pacific. Their harrowing story of being adrift for 38 days is a great read. I think it was turned into a movie.
Nah someone showed them the documentary….
I’m surprised it took them that long
The Simpson predicted it
I adore them one of the most beautiful sea mammals I've ever seen. Pains me a lot to realize the male here in Mexico city, called Keiko, was supposed to be rescued and they lied to us in the news saying he was going to be released and ended up being exploited the rest of his life in Sea World and many countries until he even killed a trainer out of stress. I don't even remember what they did to him after that, the documentary was too painful to watch I wouldn't dare watching again. He was also used to inseminate females and provide baby orcas which were born in captivity and were exploited later. That animal was my favorite thing in the world as a kid and they tortured hin, damn they!

Love your analogy. Spot on my dear. XOXO
People are seriously placing guilt on sailers?! Why on earth would anyone intentionally hit an orca with their boat?! Do they want to sink their own boat?! I pray for the safety for both orcas and sailers. Hopefully they can prevent these attacks with a some deterrent some sort of harmless method. They are attacking small vulnerable boats not the stronger fishing boats which is clearly a sign of violent bullying and must be traumatising for the crew on board
sailers don't hit them on purpose, usually they do it out of pure negligence. But it leaves only the Orca injured, as the boat being damaged is not a living thing being injured.
Besides, it's likely that some people out there aren't in the right mind and they are actively attaching Orca, in many places people hint Orca, I suspect Orca can't tell the difference between most humans and boats and many are starting to see them all as threats.
Now when you actually look at the size of the boats they're attacking, you'll see the boats might not be the biggest boats in the sea but they're still allot bigger than the Orca, it's not like the Orca are only destroying canoes 😂 or something, they're attacking vessels that are physically much bigger than them, so it's hardly "bullying". And as for looking for some sort of deterrent, this is probably the Orca using a deterrent on us humans, maybe those sailers should get the hint and leave?
hey maybe one day you'll go burn down that masonic lodge in your town, maybe you won't
No reports I read about Gloria's injuries say that the boat hit her intentionally. Where did you get that from? Did they say that in this video? Maybe I missed it.
This is absurd, they should find a way to keep the Orcas away from this area, the usage of underwater screens is a good option
Reporter: Killer whales are, for the most part, pretty harmless.
Seal: Uh, did I miss something?
Orca: No, but you'll be missing half your body when I get a hold of you.

Nature supercedes your entertainment
As much as I love orcas this isn't a good move for them, if they keep sinking boats I can see them being hunted, which is not good. I hope I'm wrong though.
Completely agree. When this group starts killing people and sinking lots of small boats like sailing vessels or pleasure craft they will be actively hunted and put down. Just like when a panther or coyote kills a human venturing in a neighborhood, the animal responsible is tracked and put down to prevent learned behavior from spreading. The same was done with "rogue" sharks where a specific individual acquired a taste for human flesh or more likely learned how easy people were to hunt. Although the latter was troublesome for sharks as short of cutting open the stomach there was no way to verify human predation. Many thousands of sharks were hunted during unhinged hunts especially during the 60s, 70s and early 80s until government stepped in. Orcas are heavily protected though and you also have animal lobbies that'll defend them even if they kill 20 people completely unprovoked. Worst case would be frustration among people and victims' families fueling vigilante hunts due to non-action from authorities. Precarious situation indeed.
I hope some people don't use this as an excuse to go after them. They have been through a lot because of humans already. Capture, loss of food and injury from boats.
Oh, you can bet they will. Let pirates do what they want, but an Orca.....no fugging way!
That is wild! We were in a tiny fishing boat off La Paz..off Baja. We saw three very tall dorsal fins coming for us…they went under boat..came beside us…breached..it was crazy. They had a baby…left after a few minutes…years ago

Payback for SeaWorld!
I'm from Spain, I read about these events in Spanish waters and there was another alternative theory which is far more credible from my POV: an orca is teaching others to hunt using the rudders of small boats. BTW, we are not invading their territory, the strait of Gibraltar has been one of the busiest and most important maritime routes in the world for centuries.

In fact based on some nature documentaries they know how to hunt and are extremely intelligent. They hunt seals by capsizing the iceberg and this looks also like one of their coordinated attacks.
