Bertie Gregory Instagram – A pod of wave-washing killer whales hunt three crabeater seals at once. There are just 100 of these special killer whales in Antarctica. We humans often wonder just how smart are wild animals? Well, these killer whales have learned by using teamwork as a family group, and water as a tool, they can create powerful waves to access seals that would otherwise be out of reach. Every single time we saw them hunt, their tactics were different, the types of waves created were different. It was artful more than instinctive. It is not a stretch to say that they were using their imagination. The killer whales, when making those waves, can’t see their target, they have to imagine where it is. This technique that they have mastered is like that of a professional athlete who masters a sport.
