One little harbor seal lucked out when it was able to seek refuge from orcas on the back of a small boat. Charvet Drucker was on the boat when, suddenly, she realized she was in the middle of a hunt, and she started recording. The seal kept close to the boat for a while as the orcas circled, and then it climbed ON the boat.

The boat was traveling through the Saratoga Passage, a body of water adjacent to Camano Island in Washington State. Drucker posted several videos to her Instagram account showing clips of the experience.
