    Under the first headline it shows that the sailors were using online platforms to share this tip. This reminds me of those viral messages of recharging your batteries in the microwave.

    Yeah when I think about how to calm wild animals down, blasting metal is my go-to.

      Killer Whales and humans have a long history of friendship and cooperative hunting. The orcas would lead people to large balleen whales, and the humans would spear them, taking most of the meat, but leaving the lips and tongue as payment to the Orcas.

        This was before we turned their habitat into a toxic sludge superfreeway and exterminated their food supply.

      Was thinking something similar. What if the whales just don’t like the sailors’ taste in heavy metal? Have we tried passing the aux to the whales? This could be a valuable learning experience.

    I’m rooting for the orcas. Can’t blame them.

    I promise you, their solution will be “murder the orcas”

      That has been the solution to a non-existent problem for the better part of a century.

    Honestly we deserve it. Orcas are considered sapient and on par with human intelligence by many experts, and one could argue we’re colonizing them.

      Its not colonization if you can’t change their hearts and minds. Shit, we can’t even communicate. This is more like war.

        Colonization requires zero convincing of hearts and minds, where did you get that from?

          Well, usually when you colonize, you destroy the native tongue and culture, to better assimilate them into your own. Spread the word of the good lord and all that. But I guess you can colonize mars, so I guess it’s not a requirement. My mistake. I wouldn’t say we’re colonizing orcas, though.
