    Two brothers swimming in tandem!!! Thank you for this beautiful footage 🤗 it’s amazing how many boats they had to navigate.

    Boats should give orcas more space. It should be an offence to bring your boat within 200m, Particularly powered boats.
    Great drone footage. 👍

    They had zero chance of hunting with the jerks in the boats following them about. Excellent drone footage all the same.

      Its highly unlikely they were hunting. You can see a seal in one shot and they swam right past it. Of course you are going to follow them, if you came across this once in a lifetime opportunity...don't worry...they can disappear and never be seen again if they want.

      Sadly...they are NOT healthy and probably NOT relaxed. The rest of their family are presumed dead, because of us, and our selfish ways. PCB's.

    This video seems so sad. Only two Orcas ? This is not the usual number for this highly intelligent animal to be in. I hope they will fare well. Hunting is much tougher for a pack animal without sufficient numbers to aid in hunting strategy. I am glad they are free and hopefully not harassed by people.

    • @Bodrikutya2

      They didn't prolong it's death just to be mean. It was a training session for the juvenile. If it was an actual hunt, it would have been over in 5 seconds.

    Pity the orcas, it must have felt like paparazzi were following them too close. 3 boats.. come on.. disrupting to the orcas communications. People should go for marine life and orcas education before getting too close.

    The point o them boats was they was escorting them fish out of our water cause they ain’t welcome so they are not. Stupid freakin’ fish running amok in our sea. Good riddance to them says I. In fact, who cares about stupid fish full stop. I hate birds too so I do. And we gotta to do something about them bees and insects. Maybe yous byes in the boats could chase em off too so you could.
