   Seen in Portugal. Not convinced that’s gonna work, but top marks for ingenuity.

     Honestly, my main concern with this is that it will probably make the boat handle like shit.

     @openridephl I think downloading the Orcinus app and using it to inform about whether it’s safe to go out or not is probably more cost and resource effective.

     @arroz The one thing we know works in an encounter is dropping small explosives over the side. This makes them go away, and probably does them no harm, but the Spanish and Portuguese authorities get really pissy about it (mostly the Spanish to be honest), so open discussion of non-lethal methods for dealing with the situation has been difficult.

     With the recent celebrity status the orcas has gained, it’s rapidly becoming impossible.

     A lot of the blame for this lies with the Spanish maritime authorities who adopted a position of sanctimonious indifference to an escalating threat to marine traffic in their waters for years, until the behaviour had spread to nearly every pod of Iberian orcas. For about 2 years, it was literally just one or two individuals and could have been contained.

     Now in winter, they migrate north. The French have demonstrated a rather more “hands on” approach, as demonstrated by one of the animals washing ashore in a river having been shot. 😞

     @goatsarah A great example of desenrascanso! But I fear it might hurt the orcas. 🙁

     @Canalbaobab Suspeito que não seja a tradução que está a tornar isso incompreensível.
