Cruising with these guys...

Post by LLCD »

The other day we took the boat to the yard and these guys decided to tag along for a bit.

I always wonder if they are chasing because they are playing,
or they are chasing because one of them was hit, bumped, and they are angry
or the boats motor bothers them and they are trying to chase it off
or the boats propellers kill other fish and they see it as a free meal.

It is a great sight to see, thanks for the video, but we will never know the real reason for this action until we are able to communicate with them.

Majestic animals they are, and it irks and angers me to see the deaths of so many of these wonderful gifts killed in fishing nets by a country,(which shall remain nameless) which has no regard to the sea creatures that inhabit this planet with us, and claim it as "Scientific Research"
