Orcas sinking boats and teaching others how

[Debi]

Orcas have sunk 3 boats in Europe and appear to be teaching others to do the same. But why?

Scientists think a traumatized orca initiated the assault on boats after a "critical moment of agony" and that the behavior is spreading among the population through social learning.

Orca are highly intelligent, more so than humans I believe. It's not like lions attacking to eat us, these Orca have an agenda and I'd steer clear of them.

I worked on a silly TV show several years ago called ZOO by James Patterson which basically told the same story. The animals had enough and unionize! EEEEEK
