Scientists have released incredible footage of northern transient killer whales following Pacific white-sided dolphins to help locate prey, then sharing the catch with them afterwards.

The behaviour was recorded in the waters around Vancouver Island in British Columbia, Canada.

Described in a new study published in the journal Scientific Reports, researchers believe this is the first documented case of cooperative foraging between killer whales (also known as orcas) and dolphins.
