It's like they were organized…..

 

Pods of killer whales off the Iberian coast are targeting and destroying boats in organized attacks.

Reports of aggressive encounters with orcas off the Iberian coast began in May 2020 and are becoming more frequent, according to a study published June 2022 in the journal Marine Mammal Science. Assaults seem to be mainly directed at sailing boats and follow a clear pattern, with orcas approaching from the stern to strike the rudder, then losing interest once they have successfully stopped the boat.

Of course it’s not the first time that animals have  gotten together to fight back.

    The show was always funny, especially the “phone cops” of Dr. Johnny Fever fame – but this episode was the funniest of them all. A classic still with us today!

    I don't know, maybe the Orcs are mounting an counterattack, somehow the turkeys got ahold of them and said it can be done. Next we will hear is sloths outflanking us very slowly… OH! The Humanity!

    Waiting to see MSNBC blame global warming or the unvaccinated for the Orca attacks.

    You know how sensitive whales hearing is, right? Echolocation and all that shit? We had whales coming close to our lobster pots when I was a kid, and were worried they'd get tangled up and killed, and then the environmentalists would flip out. Turns out, you throw m80's in the water, the whales don't seem to appreciate it any more than my neighbors cats used to. They stopped crapping in my horsehoe pit that summer and the whales have never been back that close to shore in my old hometown as far as I know. I can't see the Euros letting people have fireworks though. Poor sissies can't even own a butter knife anymore.

    Paul–I do. I have to admit, I'm kind of rooting for the whales on this one.
