There are a few relevant questions in a scenario like this:

1. Was the attack intentional?

2. Was causing harm/destruction a goal of the attack?

3. Orcas are predators. Were they attempting to eat anyone?

I would interpret "not in an aggressive way" as drawing a line between questions (1) and (2), and that's certainly an important distinction to draw. It's also possible to draw a line between (2) and (3), which wouldn't match well with the ordinary use of the word "aggressive", but which is still important and is suggested by the context.
