You want radicalized orca suicide bombers? This is how you get radicalized orca suicide bombers.

"These nautical raids were likely started by a pod including White Gladis, a female orca who may have been traumatized by a past boat collision. The unusual behavior then spread among other individuals who seem to be becoming more daring and efficient with their attacks."
