The issue that everybody seems to forget is that orcas are not damaging/sinking those > 50m yachts from millionaires, they are targeting smaller sailing boats (still called yachts), most of them from your average Joe who just wants to chill under sail, like me. Now I get very nervous every time I go to sea because of the attacks near the shore.
So if indeed orcas are "rebelling", it's the people who have nothing to do with the issue that are paying, as usual.
Sorry for the rant.
I mean, how are orcas going to know whether the owner is a millionaire?
They’re likely attacking boats because boats in general are pissing them off, and smaller boats are in the range they can actually deal with, as opposed to giant things like tankers or submarines that may actually be offending them. To them, boat is boat.
Moreover, when their owners fall into the water they do not attack or intimidate them. Probably, like most animals, they don't even understand that boats are inanimate things controlled by humans.
