Predator's Predator!! Lol no. Most animals just know how to eat and survive. Dogs and cats were like that too, but they were domesticated. So of course when an animal is domesticated they will compare it to the most domesticated animals in existence.

@You're Sheep If you knew ur facts about animals at the Georgia Aquarium you would know they don’t drug their animals.The beluga’s can participate with training if they want to.They don’t have to.If Ur talking about drugging animals ur talking about Seaworld.They drug their orca’s to keep them calm.And to make sure nothing happens during the show.I don’t know where you got ur info about This Aquarium but I know it’s wrong.

[@lauralishes1]

@You're Sheep Exactly! The research she talked about was all B.S! They don't need to be poked, prodded, drugged and spend their whole life in what is essentially a prison cell with water, for what? To let us understand their friggin measurements! More like to make money having them jump through hoops for our enjoyment. Disgraceful. They should be left alone! This is the whale equivalent of a chimp in a tiny cage and never ever getting out. People are like "oh look it's smiling how cute" no you idiot, that's just the way they look. They should be out swimming for miles, not going around in circles in a tank.

Sort of Christian these whales have been stolen from the wild as babies to increase profits of the aquarium as an additional attraction.

[@AlexSciChannel]

@@jharveyatkinson do you have a source for that. I dont disagree I'm just curious if there's anything to back it up.

I’m from Georgia, so I’ve been to the Georgia aquarium throughout the years, and I can honestly say that the staff there is absolutely amazing. They’re all so kind and friendly, and the animals really do seem happy and well cared for. They’re also all very knowledgeable about oceanography and marine life. I haven’t been there in years, but this just makes me want to go back 😊

[@Sunshine-yl4vx]

I'm a native Georgian too and we visit every year. I agree with everything you said. The GA Aquarium is truly a unique and beautiful thing to experience. The belugas are always our favorite. If you haven't had a chance, visit the Coca-Cola museum across the street for a little bit of history and taste of cokes from all over the world. The company I worked for built it.

I personally just started reading about beluga whales. I'm fasinated by them. I then found the videos and im hooked. I absolutely love,love,love them!! I am personally afraid of the ocean but I hope someday to get to personally see one. I understand why they are studied just like we have other animals that serve purposes we don't think about. Like bomb dogs for instance Noone ever says a thing about the threat they face being out of thier natural habitat. I know its different but just trying to make a point. We must learn all we can about all living creatures. I have read many of them are rescued and unable to return to thier homes. So I'm grateful they have people like you to love and be loved!! Thank you so much for educating us.

All these negative comments, this whale may have been born in captivity, so letting it out in the ocean will kill it...

It should never have been born there..should have been born in the wild

[@khawass]

Like you living in a jail. You could never live in freedom again?

[@ladyvincenza]

I'm not certain, but I think some of these animals may have been brought to captivity because they were injured, orphaned etc. and couldn't survive without help.

[@stevensaid8468]

khawass Are you for real comparing a human to a beluga? I’m sorry but at what point exactly in your life did you encounter other organisms who literally feed on you? These belugas are born in captivity. They lack the skills necessary to survive in open water. They have to be re-taught these skills in order for them to be released, and that is not an easy process. Additionally, some of these belugas may cease to find a mate if they get released.

[@khawass]

@@stevensaid8468 cease to find a mate?! The lack the skills? I don't compate humans to belugas: I give same moral value to both...and all sentient beings who have the same right to live on this Planet. I don't judge what is better for them and I don't speak for them like specieist do. It's 2020 it's time to grow in consciousness I believe

[@ROYAL_REBEL]

In truth Kelsey, even aloof cool cats do think about their human all the time even though they don't show it. My brother had a cat who was closed to him. She always climbed on top of the piano whenever he's playing on it. She hung out with him in his room but was never clingy When he left for college overseas, the cat sat on the piano 24/7. She ate maybe only once a day. She searched for him in his room and climbed back on top of the piano and waited for him for 4 months, always looking at the door while she perched on the piano. We tried to cajole her into playing with us & other cats. We even adopted a new kitten to try to snap her out of it. She then disappeared and was never seen again. She was heartbroken. My brother was inconsolable. We didn't know or understand the emotional depth and bond she had with him. So yes, animals do think about their human. And Belugas being smarter than cats would definitely have a more significant emotional bond with their trainer/human
