Gentle Giants? They can surgically remove the liver from a great white shark, and have been known to kill whales just to eat the tongue. They just don’t see humans as food and are incredibly smart. They are the true Apex predator of the ocean.

[@gvenchy2476]

I removed gentle giants so y’all can stop having an aneurysm over it. Move along

[@Razzy1312]

I doubt they have never attacked humans, but the only humans who have likely been attacked are hunters/fisherman that live in very remote areas. An Inuit man goes out on his kayak, a hungry and desperate Orca decides to take him, and his village just assumes he got lost at sea or died from rough waves. It also helps that they generally live in areas where humans can't swim due to water temperature so Orcas rarely meet humans in a vulnerable environment. If Orcas lived in tropical waters attacks would likely be much more common.

The last one is so sad. That whale is Luna, and she was abandoned by her pod in the Puget Sound. She was so lonely that she would seek out human interaction. Everyone was told to stay away from her because if she got too comfortable with humans it would lead to her own harm, but of course who can resist an adorable Orca that wants to be friends. In the end, she was hit and killed by a boat because she didn't know to stay away. :(

I can’t remember if it was this or a or another but an elder from one of the native tribes had a strong connection with one of the local pods and he believed that he would return to earth as an orca and a few years after he passed an orca was getting really personal with a lot of human so people from his tribes believed he was that orca pretty cool story but sad how that orca got killed

[@crazychrislovesretics6790]

Luna was most likely killed by a crew onboard a fishing boat, he spent a lot of time around people and boats and had no wounds from outboard motors. He was a smart animal and the fishermen were being affected by Luna’s presence and therefore probably killed him to stop their livings being affected. Bastards.

I went diving with orca whales before, they are actually really calm if you know how to behave yourself in their presence, you need to filter out any fear and stress and just go for it, they treat you like another one of themselves(just a smaller version), I seen orcas with babies as well, those are a bit more protective, they would nudge you a bit to tell you, stay away, so I kept my distance.

[@lynnkayee1015]

It might be a language. There is a video on YT called Corky hears her family from 93. Corky was taken from her family and sent to Sea World, many, many, many years later, scientists who still tracked her pod (which many of her family members were living) recorded their vocalizations and brought them to play for her. All the orcas reacted, but Corky had the strongest reaction. Of course, that COULD be us just putting that on them, possibly seeing what isn't there, but what we do know makes it seem more likely than not that she did recognize them. We know pods have different almost "accents" and ways of communication. It makes you wonder.

It’s funny how these apex predators treat everything in the ocean savagely and cruelly and see humans as friends. It’s a shame that some of us are careless and only use them for captivity. Perhaps we’ve done good to them before most documented history, and passed their friendship for generations. They are smart enough to know that anyway. They are also quite adorable for apex predators.

Cat Nini That last orca was Luna, and I believe that the person interacting with him was one of the villagers who lived near the bay Luna lived in, and he interacted with Luna regularly. He may be one of the indigenous people, and they have great respect for Orca, and I think they believe they are ancestors... if not that, then maybe they hold them sacred for some other reason, but either way, and whether or not that guy is even one of the indigenous people, he’s interacting with a whale that lost its family/pod, and basically was adopted by the people of that village/bay (or Luna adopted them as family). If you don’t know what I’m talking about at all, there’s a documentary on Luna you can easily find on KZbin, which I recommend.

The last clip is an orca named Luna who lived in Nootka! The locals knew him and would often play with him and chat to him as he was a lonely whale without a pod. Unfortunately, Luna was killed in a boat accident in 2006 aged 6 years old, he knew the boat and the people on the boat well so he approached it and got caught in the propeller... 😔 but his story is very interesting!

The stick sequence is so cool. "I've got another one anyway." Eyeball to eyeball, man. What a treat.

It certainly was. I don't know if you noticed, but the orca answered his whistle too.

I loved this one, he wanted to play catch, I would have petted him when he brought him back. What a treat, and he answered his whistle, plus a couple goose berries ones too ❤️

I could be wrong, but I’m pretty sure that the orca with the stick is Luna.. Luna was an orphan that lived in the BC area and that man was very “close” with him.. he somehow got separated from his pod when he was young and never reunited with them.. he was very lonely and became close with certain humans in that area.. researchers tried to reunite him with his family and the Canadian government tried to sell him to Sea World.. it was an epic showdown when they tried to trick him into a net.. First Nations came around in a war canoe and were able to get him out of the net and away from them.. Ryan Reynolds is from BC and him and Blake Lively produced a documentary on him.. he ended up getting caught up in a boat motor and died.. Heartbreaking story, but worth a watch if you’re interested in those kinds of stories

That Norway footage is unreal. I could never imagine a scene like before my eyes. Especially at that time of day. Bliss. That'll be in my dreams

[@CoreyMillionaire2029]

Keiko the orca from Free Willy actually swam here from his sea pen in Iceland in 2002 and was seen following fishing trawelers to get an easy meal! Orcas in the North Atlantic all now routinely steal herring from trawlers rather than just hunt their own. Thousands of years of tradition changed in an instant.

Fun fact: there has never been a recorded case of an Orca attacking a human in the wild. Another fun fact: Orcas from different regions of the world speak different languages.

SeaWorld is good bc it helps keep alive injured animals that would never have a chance at survival in the wild. The shows are a way to keep the animals from getting bored, gives the public an opportunity to see them upclose and helps fund scientific research on marine life.

[@randomfox12245]

@@BoleDaPole seaworlds rehabilitated animals are not kept in their parks or used in their shows. All the animals used in shows are captured out of their natural habitat when juvenile and trained for years to become dependant on the food provided for following instructions. "Keeps them from getting bored" you know why they're getting bored? Because they're being kept in a fucking bathtub for their entire life. If they had the infinite expanse of the entire god damn ocean where they're supposed to be, boredom wouldn't be a fucking issue
