Fish hats? On whales? Sometimes in doing research for an article, I come across an odd story on social media. It’s strange enough that I feel compelled to dig deeper trying to find out if it’s an Internet legend or fact based. That was the case with a story I read about orca whales. The story stated that some orca’s in the waters near Seattle had adopted the fashion trend of wearing fish on their heads. Knowing a bit about orca aka killer whales in the wild, I had a healthy suspicion that this story was just that – a story. This article is investigating some of the odd behaviors of marine mammals.
