The story is about some stranded killer whales up at Fraser Island, and ends with this:
Killer whales, also known as orca, follow the humpback whale migration along Australia's east coast to prey on calves.I didn't know that. Obviously, their tastes don't run to humans all that much, as I have never heard of an orca being seen anywhere near a beach on the Gold or Sunshine Coast as they pass on their way to or from Hervey Bay.
I actually assumed they always stayed in colder waters. My knowledge of marine biology is obviously lacking.
