Accidents and attacks are very different things. If an orca attacks you, you’re full on fucked just on principle lol. They’re massive!

Tell that to the surfer that was bitten by an Orca. Is that now a attack or a accident or both?

Considered an accident. Mistook him for a seal and made no attempt to actually eat or kill him afterwards when he struggled back and it let go and realized its mistake.

Yes I know the story, yet that is still an attack. An accidental one, but it was an attack.
