Orca Spotted Doing Something Really Weird In Puzzling Throwback To The 1980s
Huff PostLOADING ERROR LOADING Dead salmon hats for fall? In the summer of 1987, orcas from the Pacific Northwest’s “southern resident” population started doing something that fascinated and perplexed human observers: wearing dead salmon on their heads. “We saw one with a fish on its head,” Deborah Giles, the research director for the nonprofit Wild Orca, told New Scientist. “So that was fun – it’s been a while since I’ve personally seen it.” Photographer Jim Pasola snapped a picture of a male orca known as J27 Blackberry boldly flaunting a fishy adornment near Washington state’s Kitsap Peninsula on Oct. 25. Right now, orca feeding grounds in South Puget Sound are experiencing a “bumper crop” of chum salmon, Giles told New Scientist.
