A rare encounter between a pod of orcas and two humpback whales, which were engaged in a dramatic hours-long clash, was witnessed by whale watchers, and also captured on camera.
On Sept. 29 at around 11 a.m., a group of around 15 Bigg’s orcas was spotted being unusually active on the surface, near the Canada-U.S. border in the Strait of Juan De Fuca, roughly 25 miles west of Port Angeles, Washington, by captains of the Pacific Whale Watch Association (PWWA).
