Orcas hunting herring 🐟 The orcas in Norway use a feeding method called carousel feeding where they work together to gather the herring into tighter bait balls and drive them towards the surface. They also use their tails to create a pressure wave that stuns the fish, so it's easier for them to pick the fish up. In the video, you can hear the tail slap 💥🐟👂
The video was taken while standing on the deck of our boat MS Sylvkallen, with a GoPro attached to a pole, hoping for the best to capture the whales underneath. It requires the right conditions, along with eliminating user error such as pointing the camera in the complete wrong direction, not pressing record, or forgetting to put the memory card in ✨ 😄
