It's learning. They learn prey species from hunting with their family. But they are curious and playful and pretty fearless. If they decide humans on paddleboards make good food, and the mothers train their calves on us, watch out.

Our limited knowledge of orca behaviour is often based on a combo of captured & wild whales. Observing them in their habitat is difficult at best. We’re learning new & amazing things every year. They do some highly sophisticated things that are often beyond just “instinct” as some people thought.
