Scientists sound alarm after observing worrisome behavior shift in world's most isolated whale species: 'No area of the world's oceans is untouched'

I want to address this issue that may have been solved as to what is going on. Here is an article with quotes following, then my opinion.
'Cocaine sharks' in Brazil expose ocean pollution (nationalgeographic.com)
Quote: The team found cocaine and benzoylecgonine—a metabolite produced when cocaine is broken down in the body—in muscle and liver tissues of all 13 fish. (See the surprising ways sharks keep our oceans healthy.)
Pharmaceutical waste, whether it’s legal or illegal, is an understudied problem for wildlife in oceans, rivers, and lakes. Scientists have also detected traces of coke and other illegal drugs near large cities such as London and off Florida’s coast.
It's not yet known how cocaine—a stimulant sourced from coca leaves—could affect the Braziian sharpnose shark, a species the International Union for Conservation of Nature lists as vulnerable to extinction, due mostly to overfishing.

Now I wonder if the whale and dolphin issue (or Orca's as they better known as) aggressive behavior increase recently has to do with the now common practice of dumping their drug cargo overboard before they get searched. 

Drugged out fish. Now to be fair these new behaviors could also have something to do with the slowing, if not shut down, of the Atlantic Meridian Ocean Current, but drugs do seem to be a factor in these newer attacks. Orca's are jerks though and will attack basically anything, but whales on the other hand are a different story.
