    Those tunas are one of the few animals orcas can't catch, or at least, not easily because they're actually even faster swimmers.

      Actually orcas can catch tunas (yes, not easily like you said, but they can). There’s a famous scientific article on how they do it. Google: ‘Killer whale predation on bluefin tuna: exploring the hypothesis of the endurance-exhaustion technique’. Orcas have greater endurance than tunas. They will keep swimming behind and catch up once tuna exhausts itself. Then they will corral the tuna in groups, that’s how orca pods operate. Remember, orcas are extremely intelligent. It’s like cape hunting dogs going after much faster animals like impalas and Thompson gazelles. The dogs can run for mile and miles and miles…eventually catching up to the tired prey. So yes, orcas do hunt and eat tuna without human interference.

      What I meant to say was that many people stay in poverty because of a certain mindset. It's a well documented behavior.

      The thing about Orcas is that they can be pretty brutal. Often they’ll kill something and then only eat the vital organs and then just leave the rest of the body to rot. They do it all the time with sharks. Scavengers obviously eventually eat it all though. They probably do the same thing here with the tuna. They’ll eat the vital organs and the belly meat (otoro) which is the fattiest and by far the most valuable. I mean their most natural food source are seals and they’re just a big lump of fat. That’s what Orcas like the best.

    they have started eating fruits from orchards that they never fed on before.

      Adrien The Orca are chasing a boat when they hear the noise of the spinner line whizzing round and round which usually means a tuna has been caught and it’s running in panic. Therefore having a sound recording of the spinner line whizzing running continuously might confuse the Orca - and when they repeatedly find no fish on the line they may get fed up and leave.

    It is suspected that some of these fishermen may have fought back and have injured some of the Orcas. It is also suspected that these animals that follow the tuna on their migration could be the same groups of Orcas that seem to have engaged in encounters with sailing vessels reported alongside the coast of Portugal and northern Spain during Summer 2020. These encounters were called "attacks" because the animals damaged some sailing boats' rudders. I am sailing these waters too, but haven't seen any Orcas yet, and I am also not keen, seeing the same situation during summer 2021. These usually mostly unharming animals were seen unusually close to the boats, and some did use their body strength to "ram" the underwater structures of some boats, which has damaged the rudders and shaken the vessels, some of which were weighing several tons, turning them 180 degrees off course - and certainly frightened their crews.
    However, who was there first, Orcas, or men?

    Having a squad of boats for deep sea fishing would be make the experience a lot more friendly 😂

    Is this where Sirena tuna comes from? If so I am honoured to be eating the same food as these great mammals. They really combine their mass and strength to take down all sorts of different prey. And they are cheeky and thieving when they can be, like humans.

    These whales probably came from Japan escaping the country

    Maybe hook up a stun gun to the tuna and troll it for the orcas. After a few zaps i think they would learn to leave to the line caught tuna alone.
