How are you able to tell the orcas apart from each other? And how do you know the names of the trainers as well? You must be an expert Tillikum16.

Good question lol and I am so bad at iding orcas, once during a slide over I thought Makani was passing over and it was Orkid hahahaha but it’s a process of elimination, like the easiest one would be Ulises as he is the only one with the hooked dorsal, shouka and makani have the same sort of dorsals now but Shouka’s tail is so unique, it’s curved upwards unlike other orcas, just some markings too like Kalias dots, the trainers meanwhile i always listen when they introduce themselves, as when an orca performs usually the same trainer stays with them the whole show, so it’s better to id both trainer and orca, I don’t really think I’m good just observant

What was that around the 2:30 mark? It looked like Ky was doing an exaggerated Tilikum impression. Lovely closeup of Tuar's eyepatch and small freckle. And that was pretty strong splashing from Tarkara, Sakari, and Kamea.

they call the behavior a Hydro Slap, the signal is like a golf putt lol i have a training session with Ky doing just that, and im not happy with SeaWorld at the moment lol because now they allow you to feed the orcas when you go on a Killer whale up close tour....as last year, they only allowed it at SWF(couple of times) and SWC(lots of times, Thanks behaviorist Amber!) ive met both Ky and Tuar and dont expect to do another Tour, i did twice as SWT's tour comes out as the cheapest @ $45.

i didnt really see any of that, but i did see a smaller orca go after Ky, it could have been Kamea, as Sakari seems to get along well with Kyuquot and Tuar....as they have one dad in Tilikum.
