Orcas in the Wild

  Hello guys!! Today's blog is really interesting and focused to the future Engenieers have been working on some new artificial-intelligence to help the orcas. The tecnology consists on a system to identify their calls so the boat traffic can be minimized in those areas.  So far the team has been able to distinguish different kinds of whales from each other, but they don't have enough source data to distinguish a resident killer whale from a migrating one. They have set up underwater listening devices and are advanced enough to send alerts back when an orca is nearby in real time. The new system is making progress but they haven't officialy mastered it completely and it is predicted that maybe by 2025 the progress will be enough to finally located and trace the orcas so the traffic there will be reduced and the whales will be much safer and out of danger. orcas underwater - Bing .

She is a victim of being caught in an illegal fishing net and wants revenge for it. She, as the older orca in her pod of 15 has been teaching the others how to attack boats because of her trauma and they are now known as the "Gladis Orcas". Watch this video of the orcas attacking off the coast of Portugal They snea kily approach the boat from underneath and examine it closely, the crew never even know they are there, th ey begin to touch it and hit the rudder with their heads to turn the ship; they can even break it with a lever movement. “They know that this is how the boat turns and that they can steer it,” explains Alberto López, a marine biologist of the Orca Atlántica group. Orcas don´t usually attack neither boats and people, but the Gladis orcas are the only exception. Their aggressive behavior
