Christopher Swann, who has been whale watching for several years now, recently eye-witnessed a pod of Orcas (commonly referred to as ‘killer whales’) hunting down a dolphin that had been seperated from its pod. Lucky for us, he captured the dolphin’s ordeal with his camera. “The terror and fight for life of the dolphin was palpable,” Mr Swann recalls witnessing the scene. “One could feel the adrenalin in his veins and his pulsing heart as he raced for his life.” He also provides some insight into the social behaviour of the Orcas: “I had the feeling–maybe wrongly of course –the last hour was unnecessary as far as the whales were concerned and that they were just playing with it and then finally, just as darkness fell, they had it on the surface in their midst and it was all over.”
