WATCH: Two Orcas Were Spotted In Abu Dhabi
On May 9, a group spotted a pair of orcas in Abu Dhabi’s waters. While this sighting, be it rare, is not the first. In 2019, a group of 8 orcas were spotted in Dubai.
Orcas, aka killer whales, are among the most well-travelled marine life
They adapt to both cooler climes and the warmer waters of the Middle East. However, despite their moving nature, orca sightings in the UAE are rare. In 2019, some people spotted a pod of 8 orcas in Dubai. Moreover, the sighting of this pod was the first in 11 years in the UAE.
So, @doukmaknana and @just_fishing_ad shared this video of the orca spotting in Abu Dhabi!
