Have you heard about Funky Monkey?

Denise Piper Reporter from Whangārei Leader

Funky Monkey is an orca who doesn't quite know his own size - he managed to dodge disaster when he got stuck on a shallow sandbank in Whangārei Harbour on Tuesday, thanks to some sun prevention from Orca Research Trust. Now the trust is encouraging people to call in any sightings of orca.
