A pair of Orcas, also known as killer whales, have been spotted off the coast of Abu Dhabi.

They are among the most well-travelled of marine wildlife, adapting to both cooler climates and warm waters.

Although this sighting is rare, they have been frequently visiting Abu Dhabi waters.

Orcas are usually not a threat to humans, but the Environment Agency - Abu Dhabi has urged the public to keep a safe distance when spotting wildlife and to alert the Abu Dhabi Government Call Centre on 800 555 in case of unusual sightings.
