2014 March Orca at Maraetai New Zealand

After swim training at beach on Sunday morning, we had some unexpected visitors... glad we were back on the beach! Watch for the jumping stingray... and the clever escaping stingray.

[@julieedinger2462]

Love Orcas❣️❣️❣️ so cool to see them in their world in the ocean!! this is we’re they belong🙏🏼

[@babeinpnk]

Thank you for sharing. You're so lucky to experienced that in person.

[@SueMead]

I remember seeing a pod of around five/six orca on the back beach of Nelson when I was around ten years old. The sea was similarly calm and although it was around forty years ago, I have a recollection of them snuffling around for flounder and rays. I went home and told my family who just laughed and gave the ol' "yeah, right" attitude but after all these years, it is one of the most powerful memories I possess.

[@annetteslife]

I bet that was amazing

[@psychiatry-is-eugenics]

flounder are disappearing ?

[@julieedinger2462]

Oh! wow! you are soo lucky💖 to have witnessed them up close an personal!! That’s a dream of mine……

poor stingray was saying "please help me I don't want to die".

The color is beautiful and its texture is soft, but it is dangerous, it roams the sea without borders, and it is not afraid how much I love it and I like it very much. It's black ocean

[@elcajondavid1]

Stingray has something to say, "I really, really hate killer whales."

[@awesomepaws3526]

Amazing. That would have been breathtaking!

[@funkyflights]

Wow they put on a show for everyone.... very cool ...

[@annetteslife]

Way better then going to some SeaWorld park, best of all these people got to watch the orcas in their home with their family for free.

[@MoeMoe-if1zs]

That beach has a deep drop off point, those orcas were easily in 6-8 feet of water. I would absolutely have gone crazy seeing killer whales that close!

[@BeckaLJonesAuthor]

Wow... Fantastic!

okay but nobody asked

[@lisa-shitsakwibjnie]

@@TheBasara555 So...! Your point? I gave my opinion anyways. Deal with it.

[@hollohuman1256]

Pretty sure the only orcas who mainly hunt rays are here in NZ have personally never seen any but I have been fishing three times out on my dad's boat in Foxton. last year Every time there was this massive group of near 20+ common dolphins. We haven't been out this year I really hope to see other wildlife. I have also had a MAJOR obsession with orcas since I was lik thins young it was all I did at kindy lol i.postimg.cc/yYyrg8C4/20201210-221032.jpg. But now my biggest obsession is to retire captive orcas and move them to sea pens and heck, maybe release the few caught after 2000.

[@julieedinger2462]

I’m soo abscessed with Orcas too❤️❤️ Bless you for hoping one day rescue caged Orcas build a huge ocean pen so they can be happy with tons of room for them! they would need help finding food since they are reliant on human care.

[@simonedevlin7710]

Did the pod ever get that ray?

[@darthveatay]

Must be hunting rays that's probably why they are so close to the beach

[@jamieohjamie]

Idk I can see no clear signs that they were hunting sting rays. Not a one.

[@Z4Zander]

@@jamieohjamie Must have been after that eagle ray then.

[@annetteslife]

SeaWorld supporters this is where you should go and watch orcas and dolphins! Out in the open with their families, not in some tank forced to perform tricks and facing cruelty all because of corporate greed!

[@carolinewhite3435]

So right sea world and places like it should be band people don't go to these cruel shows and they won't have them simple

[@brandyadams8436]

As far as I know there was enough hype for them to announce they were stopping their breeding program and all “theatrical” shows will end in 2019 👍🏻

[@brendamartin973]

how many have you seen in the ocean

[@user-dg5yh2rc7m]

Бедный скат!

[@thetruthisoutthereofficial]

I think the orcas were a bit put off by the people otherwise they probably would have charged closer onto shore. Although if you had gone in the water slowly they probably would not have hurt anyone if though they were hunting but you should not interfere when they are hunting

[@icedove101]

right, they couldnt even hunt because the people where all standing around the prey, the dont want to get humans by mistake

[@thetruthisoutthereofficial]

Fuck WhatsMyUserNameAgain orcas are not interested eating humans

[@icedove101]

The Truth Is Out There I know. thats why they where in the way. or else the orca would have gone for the bigger human prey.

[@thetruthisoutthereofficial]

Fuck WhatsMyUserNameAgain i told you orcas don't eat humans yet you keep saying they would have gone for bigger human prey. either i don't understand your weird sense of humor or you don't understand english

[@icedove101]

The Truth Is Out There Sigh, ok let me break it down to a language a 5 year old under stands... The orca did not swim after the ray (Because the orca do not want to eat the people, Because orca do not eat people) that is why the humans where in the way.

Its using the shore and humans for shelter.

It's using the shallow shoreline, thinking it's safe from the Orcas. But, Orcas will beach themselves to catch a stingray.

[@rachelgarton763]

Я бы не стал так близко к воде подходить , бывали случаи когда касатки прямо с берега «слизывали» человека ...

[@user-lp4bm7ms8y]

Artur Ursus Не придумывайте. В условиях ДИКОЙ ПРИРОДЫ, касатка дружелюбна и ее нападение на человека практически не зафиксировано. И потом, чтобы схватить жертву с берега, нужна волна с которой касатка могла бы вернуться в море на глубину. В противном случае, угроза завязнуть у берега на мелководье. А как видите в ролике, На море штиль.
