Estimating social networks of animals becomes a challenging task if the animals under study are living in the wild and are visuable only for very short moments. We estimate the social network of a group of killer whales based on a database of pictures, taken while the animals breach the ocean surface for breathing. We are especially interested in identifying leader-follower relationships between individual whales.
