Orca interactions- Danger in the Strait of Gibraltar

Since 2020, reports have increased of boats being rammed by orcas along the European Atlantic coast. The whales make a beeline for the hulls and rudders. Researchers are trying to find out why. Researchers largely agree that the Gibraltar killer whales are under severe stress. There’s heavy marine traffic in the strait and along the entire Iberian coast. Humans and animals compete for tuna, and noise pollution is high. The documentary hears from researchers, scientists and the boat crews themselves, about the unusual behavior of these animals.
