On the heels of horrified tourists witnessing the killing of two orcas also known as “Killer Whales” in Vincentian waters, a cruise ship has taken strong action in protest of the age old tradition.

TUI Discovery stopped short of pulling out of the destination, but has cancelled all its whale and dolphin watching tours. A crew member described the delight of the rare sighting of the killer whales, turned into a bloody incident as whalers slaughtered two of the huge sea creatures just off the Leeward coast.
