that's awesome. thanks for sharing that. orcas and whales have some complex relationships. i have seen some research suggesting that humpback whales have begun interrupting orca hunts, even when they're hunting other species and not necessarily humpback whales.
at the end of the story you linked, it seems the orcas did their wave dashing technique on the boat. this has been filmed with the bbc crew having it done to them as well. the orcas had just finished off a seal i believe, and did the same technique with the filmers in the boat.

it looks like they were just halfheartedly doing it, so i am curious if they were sending a message or just training or experimenting.
