🎥 by @thealexrubenstein: #NatGeoVenture had an amazing encounter with a huge pod of Resident killer whales off the coast of Vancouver Island! Orcas are matrilineal; they are entirely female dominated and have social structures where moms and grandmothers pass on hunting and cultural knowledge to their male offspring, who live with their moms their entire lives and are extremely dependent on them. Big mommas boys! #whereiexplore . . . #lindbladexpeditions #pacificnorthwest #pnw #canada #whalewatching #wildlifephotography #travelphotography #expeditiontravel #adventuretravel #explorer #exploremore #getoutside #nature
