Pod of orcas sink 50-foot yacht in Moroccan waters
The crew of a 50-foot yacht a few miles from the Strait of Gibraltar say orcas damaged the rudder of their boat and ultimately sank the vessel. The same pod has sunk at least five other boats since 2020. NBC’s Kelly Cobiella reports for TODAY.

Now this is podracing!
They are starting to fight back. Called evolution
Stop destroying their home with plastic and maybe they wouldn't see humans as such threats
This seems to be a territorial issue. They know boats equal fisherman, being in competition for food can lead to certain things.
Maby if they give them something to play ,a biologische bal (biologische afbreekbaar ) and then go away
As a long time live aboard sailor on the western Mexican coast I find it interesting how the "experts" try to guess the possible reasons or mindset of a completely different creature.
It's like an adaptation of the old Lassie movies.
What? Timmy is trapped in the well?
Really? You call yourself a marine biologist? Seriously?
There's not a SINGLE documented case of an orca attacking a human! ( Not counting the torture chamber of sea world) so ANY "marine biologist" worth their salt would simply position themselves in the situation and then jump in and shoo them away!
I mean they might get eaten, but hey…. science, right?
They sent monkeys into space.
I'm not suggesting you throw a monkey in with the orca, that's kinda cruel.
How bout an old astronaut? They like sailing.
Maybe the humans should get a clue and stay out of their feeding ground
Orcas are very intelligent we need to just stop messing with them just stay away from them at all costs
I'm Team Iberian Orcas
Maybe take the hint and stop driving over their house in your boats.
U ignorant people don't get that the Orcas need space to live and feed freely 2!
Orcas on the hunt for boats
Wow… They have hobbies.
It sure looks like an attack.
100 years ago they would be hunted down and killed.
Today they are protected.
Free the ocean.
Stand with orcas.
Seriously stop fishnetting
China overfish mapping
Sharkfinning
Dolphin baying
Etc
Nature is fighting back !
Hahaha wow they are incredible!
Playfulness ha, more like a warning ⚠️
I think people are so ignorant about them, just thinking they cant be intelligent cause there fishes.
They tired of us
Maybe an orca got hit by a boat, and now it taught others to attack boats?
Doesn't the Bible say that animals will turn on mankind one day?? 😂😂😩😩
Maybe the boats are way too loud for them?
Orcas are the king of the ocean they can take on anything except super big cruise boats

Well boys can we start a petition for a once in a forever hunting party?
Criminal Pod Organization.

Evolution at its finest!
The pod wants people out of their environment. Don’t blame them.
Sounds like something a pew pew would take care of
I personally think its egotistical and arrogant to think they're doing this for some sort of revenge for nature. Even when we see ourselves as the culprit, we are extremely arrogant wjth our place in the world
Wait till they discover people are tasty.
People are out there harming these animals. It's obvious.
I'll give it a year at most and they'll be attacking people. These animals do not forget and they are extremely intelligent. These scientists can claim this is benign behavior but this is probably a warning to humans.
With all these cruise ships and military vessels and fishing vessels over all these years of global trade, you have to be crazy to think people don't harm these animals and give them reasons to do what they're doing. It doesn't make sense that they would suddenly start playing with large boats just because they feel like playing. If that was the case then this would've been in books a few hundred years ago but it ain't.
Keep messing around with those orca and you'll soon see real Killer Whales
