A pod of Orcas hunt a gray whale and its calf in an organized group on the Oregon coast
On Monday, May 8, whale watchers along the Oregon coast spotted a rare sight: a pod of orcas attacking a pair of gray whales.
Local photographer Jaklyn Larsen caught dramatic drone footage of the orca pod hunting in the waters between Cape Foulweather and Gull Rock on the central Oregon coast.
According to Craig Hayslip, a faculty research assistant with the Marine Mammal Institute at OSU who witnessed the event, the mother defended the calf throughout the time it was being attacked and long after it was dead. As night fell, the mother finally swam away heading north and the orcas stayed behind.
