How so?

They can’t. I wish people would eat other things. We should stick to food from on land. They can’t eat food on land, they can only eat fish, maybe we should know our place as humans.

@@morgan-louw5192 if they could start eating seals, cod...they just eat salmon

@@TheDaragh How do you know for sure? It seems that they are eating what they can find when they are hungry. In Canada, Howe Sound fjord, I heard that there are plenty of herrings, so we know that they are eating those. If they choose to eat salmon instead of the other « available » species around (not sure though) there might be reason for that choice. Right?

@TheDaragh ua-cam.com/video/0TV5N5j5Imk/v-deo.htmlsi=n-07s67TS2pKqv2Z Those ones for sure want to grab some sea lions, because it is handy and available. Eh?

The two calves in order of appearance are L127 (female) and L126 (male).

@@OrcaConservancyOfficial that's so awesome I literally came to the San Juan Islands from Florida to help them. Figured being here physically might help 😂

​@@OrcaConservancyOfficialBittersweet though, as Tokitae, the captive daughter of Ocean Sun, passed away that day😢. She was SO close to coming home. We already lost three orcas to captivity this year, further proving they're not made to live in a barren concrete tank devoid of everything natural and important to them.

Her presumed family yes. It is not for sure known who her actual family is, but we do know that L25 Ocean Sun, who is a part of the L12s and was present during this day, was also present during the captures where Tokitae was taken, and could possibly have remembered her.

Even longer than that. Scientists believe they diverged over 700,000 years ago.

Maybe you should awarded a federal grant also , so you could substantiate your claims , let's say 50 million 😂😂

We also hope they are getting a lot of food. Just yesterday a report was released that indicated 10 individuals from J, K and L Pods were appearing in poor body condition caused by nutritional stress. So we have to keep our foot on the gas to make sure these whales will have fish to survive.

@@OrcaConservancyOfficial seems like our greys are also having a tough time getting enough to eat lately. and there's another el Nino starting this year too...... that usually means big ugly red algae blooms. food tends to go off when it's not refrigerated properly huh.

There are a couple of boys here in the Salish Sea that are pretty famous for playing with crab pots, boat anchors, and even boats. One went viral on UA-cam several years ago for causing a small collision of a moored sailboat into another because he was playing with the anchor and moving it around, which caused the boat to move around. Orcas are curious in nature and sometimes play with things that they shouldn't play with, which is what we believe is happening with the population off the coast of Portugal.

@@OrcaConservancyOfficial not sure I would characterize what's happening off the Iberian coast as just being playful or curious like our locals. I certainly don't blame Orca, especially for disarming a perceived threat, and hope no humans allow themselves to be harmed as a result of the Orca's actions. it is their territory, as much if not more than our own..... as they were here first and those are our rules..... supposedly. I had an old friend who worked at the aquarium so I had an opportunity to interact with Skana occasionally..... bittersweet memories..... much prefer seeing them swim free.

That is T46C1 Tsunami, the first born to T46C. You can read about them on our Transient page here: www.orcaconservancy.org/transient-killer-whales#T46Cs

I they don’t see one another as prey, orcas are also not whales but the bigges of the dolphin family, their name killer whales comes from the fact that they love to feed on whales, but yea they also to eat dolphins

They usually avoid each other, the few times where encounters have been recorded, residents will chase the transients off (they usually travel in bigger pods)

@@buzzlightyearandco Correct. In fact all ecotypes ignore each other. When Residents & Transients meet, they don't. They either avoid or ignore each other. Absolutely no contact. It's peaceful but not friendly. In captivity, any fights that break out are between different ecotypes. Residents seem to be more standoffish than the Transients. Residents are huge (fish diet) and Transients are pretty big too. As long as Residents only eat a specific salmon...they re doomed.

More the same way as a English speaker person would encounter someone who only speaks French, can’t understand each other, look a little different and have their own cultures

​@@rachel8904Captivity kills, simple as that. Only real difference between an orca tank and a human prison cell is one is underwater.

Yes, all wild and free as they should be.
