Breaking: Otters have joined the #OrcaUprising
Well, one otter.
A sea otter in California is hassling surfers and stealing their boards https://www.npr.org/2023/07/13/1187295769/otter-santa-cruz-surfboard-surfers-california
"#Orcas, Hoare says, will have a clear sense of what humans have done to their environment. As demonstrated by the actions of #WhiteGladis, #OrcaSociety is #matriarchal, and females can live to 100: 'They will have a memory, almost a generational memory, of a time when the #ocean was not dominated by human beings"

🌊 Boat-Sinking #Orcas: Our New Folk Heroes ⛵️💥
“The #OrcaUprising, as it’s now widely called, has been underway for a while. The boat-sinking orcas were reported on as early as 2020, but the news didn’t go viral until LiveScience shared it in May 2023. Likely the article sparked our collective imagination because of a bit of poetry it contained.”

It's possible that this 'fad' is leapfrogging through the various pods/communities," Conor Ryan, a scientific adviser to the Hebridean Whale and Dolphin Trust, told The Guardian. (A fad is a behavior initiated by one or two individuals, which others adopt through social learning and then abandon.) #OrcaUprising #Orca #Fad

The Animal Kingdom have regrouped since the #GreatEmuWar of 1932 and have launched Operation Orca.
I, for one, welcome our new orca overlords.

I know the #orca jokes are very fun. It's satisfying to think of the ocean taking retribution on us, especially on rich boat twats who definitely deserve it.
But orcas need our help. Scared people are dangerous people. Please read:

All I know is that as a regular person, I’ve got more in common with an #orca than I do with someone who owns a yacht. So of course I’m on the side of the #OrcaUprising

A Dutch yacht was reportedly attacked by an orca in the waters of Norway. This can mean only one thing: the #orcauprising is spreading!
