It was a Yahoo Answers question about "How is babby formed?" but I don't have the link.

Killer whale accidentally whole trainer.

en english por favor?

 

[CRXican]

you noobs are so out of the loop, it should read

"Killer whale accidentally the whole trainer"

but then you'd still be lame

 

[Nik]

hehe

 

[PricklyPete]

I bet when you woke up this morn you never thought of 12,300-pound of WTF up zo azz.

lulz.

 

[geno]

Its time to put that beast down, before another horrible tragedy occurs.

:hmm:

Can't tell if you're serious. Put a juicy steak in front of a dog and kill him if he eats it because I think he shouldn't.

I am FAR from an animal rights activist, I eat meat and don't think twice about it. I'm comfortable being on the top of the food chain, however, I think it's absolutely insane that people will kill an animal that *gasp* behaves like an animal! If it's going to stop the death of a person and the animal has to be put down in order to save a life, fine. If the thing is prone to killing people, let the damn thing go or stop putting people in the tank with it.

What's funny / annoying is pretty much everyone's variation left out the "the", too. I was waiting for someone to get it right.

Clearly, the answer is no.

As that whale is one of the few males in captivity, I'd bet nothing will happen to it, just like the other times it has killed. He's worth millions to Sea World, just on his stud services alone. No way they kill him.

First off our condolences for the family of the deceased.

I was a VIP visitor of this facility in 2006 and got to sea things that most people don't. While I find the technology used to maintain marine life somewhat fascinating the keeping of cetacea in captive pools is something I strongly disagree with.

This incident just shows what can go wrong and often the case when it does the results are tragic.



Please don't try to compare this to keeping pets. These are not domesticated animals. Even though orcas have been reared in captivity their needs simply cannot be fulfilled by keeping them in concrete pools - no matter the size!

The water quality is far from ideal - a fish released in this pool would have instant gill damage from the chlorine levels! The pools also present a very uncomfortable acoustic environment for these creatures.

If you ask an attendant why some of the (bulls') tails are curved over they will not tell you the truth! The truth is they spend most of their lives swimming in circles near the surface. Without water surrounding the dorsal appendage to provide buoyant support it lays over. A healthy bull in the wild can have a dorsal fin that stands well over six feet tall! Females usually don't have this issue in captivity because theirs is smaller but the larger ones do bend at the tip.

These animals also swim about 150+ miles per day. That's a lot of laps around the pool! They don't like to be be fed but rather hunt and play with their food.

As to why this happens - grabbing a trusted person - is anyone's guess. Frequently other whales can be observed showing a lack of interest in obeying simple commands before something awry occurs. It could be a warning sign, or not. Problem is this is entertainment, and the show must go on.

Interesting. The more I learn about these creatures the less I like the idea of keeping them in captivity like this and I'm completely against hunting and killing ANY whales.

edit the fricken title

Hmmm. I guess there is a reason they call them 'killer' whales.

So nobody is paying attention to my comments apparently.

FYI: Killer Whales, despite the name, are not whales.
They are far more closely related to the common dolphin than to whales.

In the same line of thinking others have posted, like dolphins (and most porpoises), they are very intelligent animals.
Also, one common theory is that the Canine genetic line was once shared with the porpoise genetic line (common ancestor), which explains the social behavior and the intelligence that often goes hand-in-hand with that behavior.

A lot of the differences in our attitude toward them just comes with the societal endearment and more importantly, the nature of the animal.
Animals like dolphins and orcas are hard to domesticate because there is, well, an obvious natural barrier to such an idea. They breath like us but are still creatures of the sea, so how can we treat the animals like we would a domestic animal? They are of the same mental capacity in most ways, but we can't possibly give the same emotional attention for said obvious reasons.

Most people give dolphins credit where it is due, and recognize their intelligence. Orcas, apart from the people that are more involved with them, don't receive that same credit.

Trying to explain how smart fish are to morons is like trying to explain how smart fish are to fish.

Reminds me of the news video of a killer whale ambushed and attacked a great white shark in its mid-section and killed it. They are no dolphins. They are not known to attack human or great whites, but things happens. There's always a risk of getting burn if you choose to play with fire.

 

[spidey07]

And I highly doubt killer whales don't attack people in the wild. There wouldn't be any evidence left, they'd just killer you and eat you. Has nobody seen "Orca"?

Oh, and latest reports are the whale grabbed her by her pony tail and started "playing" with her like a toy. Seems like Orca accidentally to me. You can see the killer in their eyes.

I went to an Orca show at Seaworld about 15yrs ago and I was totally disgusted at the conditions these beautiful animals are subjected to, I have boycotted those places ever since. I'm generally against keeping animals in captivity, but the inadequacy of the environment provided for Orcas is nothing short of cruel and unusual punishment in my book.

 

[OBLAMA2009]

these things eat walruses, great whites and polar bears......but no they wouldnt eat a human, because they, uh, like us?

 

[zinfamous]

The funny thing is that there's never been an instance of killer whales being aggressive to humans in the wild. I guess if I was trapped at sea world my whole life I'd be pretty pissed and ready to kill someone too.

are you serious?

They're known and recorded to attack vessels, systematically. They've actually been shown to "hunt" large boats in packs.

craziness.

individual humans though; yeah, I'm not sure about that.

our bone:meat ratio is terrible

oh, and walruses, great whites, and polar bears?
orcas don't actively *hunt* any of those, well, except for walruses, and more commonly sea lions and whatnot.

will they kill them? sure. but even then, their diet is different depending on their local habits/regional foodstuffs.

we'd do the same thing in their position. They don't like unfamiliar intruders.

Dogs would use pack socialization and do something to us if they had their own area and had never encountered us before.
Hell, packs of dogs regularly "attack" vehicles, barking and jumping with either curiosity or anger, depending upon the situation at hand.

We should know it full well - the intentions of social creatures are extremely hard to understand without knowing their common behavior. When each regional group of orcas can have their own subset of vocalizations, their behavior could very well differ amongst the groups too.

Don't forget, dolphins have done the same thing. Their size is a little less of an issue when compared to the beast that is their larger genetic brother, and we regularly get more opportunity to interact with them in the wild. But they have attacked people, and they have also saved people in the wild. They're intelligent and their behavior can vary just as much as any other social creature.

Even on the internet, some of you twerps need to get out more. You know, it's a big internet out there.

As much as some of you like to belief, ATOT is not the end of the intertubes, try venturing outside of it once in a while.

And youse, why don't youse git in your kar, and go bai me sum sammich.

i know you're chinese and all, but this is the worst case of engrish i've seen.

etc...

Oh I made no comment about it. I think they're quite badass, really, and the actual facts concerning Orcas, when you ignore the sugar-coated hippie BS that so-called lovers of sea critters like to tout, it actually makes me respect them more.

They're smart, badass, apex predators. The real Orca is far more deserving of respect and protection than that mythical pacifist, flower-spreading Orca that the hippies want us to believe exists.

All I'm saying is that they do indeed attack in the wild, and they fucking love to hunt large vessels.

I think there was an incident ~2 years ago where they actually went after one of those Japanese whaling vessels :awe:

Oh no doubt. They are a crowned-jewel of evolution, a highly intelligent beast. They are no shark and can't be compared to them, but they are far more intelligent.

Hell, there's actually a story of one that hunted alongside humans. It was essentially trained to kill whales so that the humans could take the glory, because in the end, the humans gave the orcas some delicious whale lips and whale tongue as a prize.

Agreed. I also find it interesting that people don't seem to think keeping such a majestic, and yes possibly dangerous, creature in captivity isn't cruel. I mean if you kept a dog in a plastic kennel it's whole life and taught it tricks most people would agre that's cruel. But take a 30 foot whale used to travelling hundreds if not thousands of killometers a year in the open sea and put it in a 100 foot tank and it's entertainment? I'd feel like killing someone too in that situation.
