Orcas start wearing dead salmon hats again after ditching the trend for 37 years
Orcas start wearing dead salmon hats again after ditching the trend for 37 years
Orcas off the coast of Washington State are balancing dead fish on their heads like it's the 1980s, but researchers still aren't sure why they do it.
Dude that author should be ashamed of themselves. How could you report on the topic and NOT provide a pic? Geesh.
So they stretch it over their fin or what, how is it staying on
Through sheer audacity
I was thinking, perhaps by sucking through the blowhole, but I haven't looked it up yet so don't trust me

A jaunty chapeau! Perched just so!
*Salmoned just so!
(perch are too freshwater for this trend)
In my experience, finding a relevant image in an online article is a 50-50
She had style! She had flair! She was there...
That's how she became- the Orca!
stylish
Makes sense. Fashion is cyclical.
Yeah, these young orcas today think they know it all. Always vandalizing yachts, and harassing the poor seals. I'm like just eat your food. Stop flinging it around.
It's not too late!
Ahh yes, MOGA. Make Ocean Great Again. Those guys.
It's a sign. People are going to start planking again.
Plot twist it was the salmon all the time
Only 80s orcas will understand it.
I'm almost certain orcas have near human level intelligence but because of their lack of suitable appendages, this is their only way to show it.
They are trying to talk to us and we are too stupid to listen.
"near human level intelligence" well, they are smarter then the average US citizen, that's for sure. I prefer to wear a dead salmon as a hat a million times over voting for Trump. It's the smarter choice. Orca's are like dolphins:
"oh, so we stopped being weird and y'all still made anti planet governments in charge? okay. then we're going back to being weird and violent. fuck you"
Under water, with no hands, how are they getting the fish in place? And perhaps more difficult, how do they keep it there? Anyone aware of a video?
I'm completely guessing, are they able to create suction with their blowhole?
'90's fashion is making a comeback here too, but damn... Didn't expect that to extend to the ocean
So it's not just humans who are into the 80s…
It'll be the latest trend at the Orca's this year.
Fashion is cyclical, as they say.
Its not a phase mom
A trend every Destiny player understands and agrees with.
Jesus christ, I've been hearing about these fuckin' salmon hats all week
This is big news!
