Description: Killer whales were recorded predominantly in inshore waters of the northeast, north, west and south coasts. A small number of sightings also occurred in offshore waters over the Irish Shelf (figure 22). No sightings were recorded from the Irish Sea, however anecdotal evidence from divers and yacht crews indicate killer whales pass through the Irish Sea but do so well offshore, perhaps due to a lack of major food sources inshore. No population estimates exist for this species in Irish or EU waters. Seven killer whales have been photo identified from Irish waters (IWDG 2013) and all but one of these are known to be part of the ‘West
Coast Community’ killer whale group, first identified in waters off the Scottish West coast and consists of just ten animals.This group are known to predate on both marine mammals and fish (HWDT 2013).
