Orcas that have been terrorizing boats in southwest Europe since 2020 were recently spotted circling a vessel in Spain for the first time this year. The close encounter, which took place hundreds of miles from where the cetaceans should currently be, hints that this group is switching up its tactics — and scientists have no idea why.
The encounter was surprising as the orcas don't normally venture this far north until mid to late summer, Spanish science news site gCiencia reported.

The orcas normally only enter these areas to follow tuna, their preferred prey. It is unclear if the tuna have arrived early this year.
So far, at least 16 different individuals have attacked boats. Eyewitnesses also claim to have seen orcas teaching other individuals how to attack boats, with an emphasis on attacking vessels' rudders to immobilize them.
