      What are you talking about? God bless this man? This is nature, every day some animal gets eaten by another. This is Gods way and there is a balance to all things. Even plants get eaten. Do you feel good if a plant is saved from being eaten by a deer? Damn Americans are weak to the natural world. Go back to figuring out what a woman is. 🤣

    The otter knew if he stayed in the water, it was all over, so the boat was an acceptable risk. After a few seconds with nothing bad happening to it on the boat, it realized it could hang there until the orca would maybe get tired of waiting, and move on. Otters a're quite intelligent.

      Also, I'm not a big fan of humans picking winners in the fight for life in the wild. That boat stole that Orca's dinner. If I was that Orca, at the very least I'd do a nice big belly flop next to the boat to give those humans something to ponder.

The words " I'm not going to hurt you" seemed so adequate to you. As if you were expecting a "thank you" or as if talking to your pet dog. Fortunately, the 2nd time you knew better and gave her some space. Still, your own fear was understandable when the "killer whale" circled your boat.

      The orca would have worn the otter down but the boat was in the right place at the right time though I'm glad the little fur ball was OK. Though the orca is my favourite ocean dweller

    Thank you so much for saving the otter and making sure it was a safe distance from the orca before getting back into the water and swimming safely away.

    I understand the orca's have to eat. But giving that otter sanctuary shows a good heart, God bless you sir. May that little otter live for a long time. And may the Orca's be more successful the next time!..
