Became bored in the ocean. Scientists have understood why kilts attack boats around the world (photo)

Researchers have come to the conclusion that the whales just got bored in the vast ocean, so they began to have fun with boats. In 2020, the first case of an attack of a group of chips on a boat in the Gibraltar Strait was recorded. This occasion came four years of boat chaos: more than 600 yachts have been attacked around the world, and some of them were completely sank, writes Daily Mail.

High -intellectual and social animals are known to have suffered, and therefore scientists assumed that the attacks could begin after one female was injured during a collision with a boat. It was expected that she was injured and therefore became angry and began to take revenge on boats. Later, her behavior was picked up by other members of the group and the killer began to attack groups. In focus. Technology has appeared its Telegram channel.

Now marine biologists, government officials and other representatives of the marine environment have come to the conclusion that the killer is likely to attack boats around the world because of boredom. Experts believe that highly intellectual animals were bored in the ocean, and the steering wheels, in fact, became a "main toy" for them.

It is expected that fashion for games with boats steering began in the 2019 chicks in 2019, after rapidly increasing the amount of the main source of food, blue tuna. The latter's population was able to recover due to the efforts to save and ban on catching. However, the restoration of the population has given rise to a new problem. The increase in the blue tuna population has led to the killer's spending less time to hunt, which means that they had more free time.

As a result, marine biologists suggested that from boredom one of the teenage whales began to play with the steering of the yacht in the eyes of peers, it was picked up by others, and then this behavior had expanded significantly. According to the chairman of the Scientific Committee of the International Whale Commission Alex Gerbini, one individual has found that playing with the steering wheel, and then this behavior became viral.

This is not the first time when any behavior spreads among the killes: they used to wear dead salmon on the head instead of hats and played with seals, throwing them and being on the surface of the water. It is known that about 15 whales, mainly young individuals and teenagers, from 5 to 18 years, participated in boat attacks. The killes slowly approached the yachts and then attacked the drills.

At times, the killer also pursued the boats, but fortunately, no person was injured during these attacks. According to a senior researcher at the Naomi Rose Protection Institute, adult females were also noticed during boats, but they seem to have just been watching how their children play. Thus, scientists have come to the conclusion that attacks of killer in the ocean, which have been ongoing for over 4 years, are actually caused by simple boredom.

A large amount of food has led to the whales are just bored in the ocean, and boats' steering wheel probably seem to be interesting toys. Researchers have come to the conclusion that it is possible to stop the attacks of the killer by making the steering wheel less interesting for whales or completely getting rid of them. Experts are already working on alternative methods of replacing smooth drill surfaces with uneven or abrasive materials, as well as devices that make loud sounds.
