While on his boat, Dornellas witnessed a commotion in the water and noticed an otter frantically swimming towards his boat to escape from a killer whale. The dorsal fin of the whale is visible as it approaches the otter. Donellas couldn’t believe his eyes when the otter suddenly appeared out of the water and sought refuge on his boat.

Donellas expresses disbelief as he records the incident. He invites the otter to come onto the boat while the killer whale continues to swim around. The otter remains on the boat for a few minutes, then briefly returns to the water before deciding to stay on the boat.
