🐬Species of the Week 🐳
In Ireland we have two killer whale (Orca) populations, the “Scottish West Community Group”, that are known to feed on marine mammals and the offshore killer whales, that interact with pelagic trawlers off the northwest coast. In the last few years, killer whales have been seen from many locations around the Irish coast (see Flukes 2 for Special Features on killer whales).
