Amazing drone videos of the unusual sexual behaviour of an adult and a calf killer whale at Sea Lion Island, Falkland Islands.
In November 2018 orca adult males OVO and PINNONE met a group of females and calves very close to the shore. OVO started following the group and after a while focused on the younger calves, while the females remained farther apart. After a little while OVO started to follow a specific (male) calf, apparently trying to mate. Shortly after, the calf also showed sexual behaviour towards OVO. The same kind of behaviours went on for more than an hour, while females where apparently not interested at all, and the other adult male, PINNONE, was just resting still on the sea floor (he can be seen midway in the video). This is the first time that we have been able to get drone footages of sexual behaviour by Sea Lion Island killer whales. To our best knowledge, the sexual behaviour of wild southern hemisphere killer whales has been rarely observed.
