The killer whales are on the hunt in the Monterey Bay. And their hitting their target: The northbound gray whale calves. This is the second attack and killing within the week.
There were also humpbacks in the immediate area that were interacting with the orcas.
This was an epic battle between a mother trying to save her calf and 10+ orcas needing to eat.
We had two rounds of killer whales today. First on our 10:00 AM trip and then again on our 3:00 pm trip. It was remarkable.
