Volker Deeke
Volker Deeke is a professor of wildlife conservation at the University of Cumbria, noted for his expertise in marine biology and the behavior of cetaceans. He has studied the interactions between humans and killer whales, particularly focusing on the recent phenomena where orcas have been known to ram the rudders of sailboats. Deeke emphasizes that these interactions should not be considered aggressive attacks, as the animals exhibit calm behavior during these incidents. His insights contribute to understanding the growing concerns regarding orca behavior in maritime regions, especially around the Iberian Peninsula.
