An incredibly rare population of orcas with a unique pattern not seen anywhere else in the world has been described for the first time. The elusive pod is so rarely seen it's only been photographed once around its Pacific Island habitat.
“Blown away” is how the world’s leading authority on orcas said she felt when she was sent a picture of the animals. “There were no visible saddle patches on these orca,” Dr Ingrid Visser told Yahoo News as her research was published in Biodiversity Journal.
