At Least 20 #KillerWhales Are Responsible For #Rudder Raids On #Sailboats. Twenty animals out of a family pod of less than 60 seem to be the culprits, with the adults training the calves to engage in the behavior. As it turns out, #Orcas might just want to have fun. The Conservation, Information and Research on #Cetaceans (#CIRCE), told the BBC that the orcas do not seem to be acting out of trauma or (the very human emotion) revenge, but engaging in play https://jalopnik.com/at-least-20-killer-whales-are-responsible-for-rudder-ra-1850704700
