Acrobatic killer whales and dolphins

- We had a great whale watching trip through Aboriginal Journeys of Campbell River, BC, Canada (www.aboriginalj...), on Aug. 15, 2013. Garry Henkel really knows what he's doing in getting you ahead of the killer whales, and positioning the boat so you get the best possible view as they come towards you. After spending several hours with the Orcas, he took the group on a trip to see a pod of about 100 Pacific White Sided dolphins -- we travelled about 100 km over a six hour journey.
Our trip was a prize donated by Garry to the Wild Ocean Whales Society (WOWs) as a fund-raiser. Our enthusiastic thanks to him and to Susan MacKay of WOWs, who operates a wonderful volunteer website tracking whales and dolphins on the BC coast. You'll find it at whalesanddolphi....
If you're interested in wild whales and dolphins, we urge you to support both Garry and Susan.

I love dolphins and orcas
Watching orcas play is so much fun!!
One of the most beautiful creatures on earth. And no one in a wet suit holding out a fish so they'll preform.
Chrissy Yes, what a shame. No one to reward them for doing exactly the same behaviors that captive whales do. And it is perform, not preform. I am seeing that mistake a lot lately.
@@tessdurberville711 From what I know, wild orcas don't leap and twirl and dance and self-strand and spin to entertain you. They do it to have fun and hunt at the same time
@@morganistrue Fun in a pool. Fun in the wild. To each his own. All of the trained behaviors are based on natural behaviors. A ten thousand pound orca is not going to anything that it does not want to do, anymore than a ten pound cat would. Thinking otherwise is just silly. From what you know......indeed.
@@tessdurberville711 Trainers don't directly force orcas into doing tricks. They take their food away if they don't perform or if they make mistakes. Not to mention that the food they are given is dead, frozen herring that is thrown directly into their throat. The cetacean surfacing behavior showed in this video is called surfacing, breaching and porpoising. Surfacing is used simply for breathing. Porpoising is used to follow boats and chase prey. Breaching is still a mystery to marine biologists, though some think they do it to impress us humans. They don't dance, spin and twirl. They don't beach themselves, curve their bodies and pose. They like impressing us humans with their amazing appearance and hunting skills, but dancing and leaping and twirling every day, 3 times a day, for years, it can make anyone go crazy. Especially because they don't have a say. Captive orcas can't go anywhere. They are stuck in a tiny bathtub and destined to perform as a circus clown for their whole short, unhappy and miserable lives.
@@morganistrue Blackfish lied and only those too young, too naive and too aware of the truth, believed it. It is the orca equivalent of Nazi propaganda. The same weak minds that want to send those orcas to their deaths in the ocean, are there same kinds of weak minds that sent their neighbors to the gas chambers in the 40's. Those orcas are staying where they are. Go and "free" the tigers.
This ORCAS LOOK SOOOOOO HAPPY
I love everything about Orcas . Beautiful, intelligent animals 😊💜💙🐬
My son is special needs and he loves Orcas too they are one of his favorite kinds of whales 🐋🐳🐬 he first heard about them from Free Willy and has been fond of them ever since, he cares deeply about them and doesn't want any of them in any part of the world to go the way of the dinosaurs 🦕🦖 or the dodo bird 🦤. He also hopes that someday soon he can meet an orca or pod of them in the wild and hopes that they will let him give them a gentle loving touch and maybe even swim with them and nobody minds.
What an amazing experience that must have been . Most beautiful creatures on the earth.
Orcas are so beautiful and smart. Please protect them and take care of our oceans!❤️
Right where they should be having fun at...the ocean is their natural habitat. They were having a ball!
GREAT photography work!! And bravo to the orcas who "perform" because they want to, not because they have to!! Plenty of room to swim and breeching is apparently something fun for them!! Some perfectly in unison, side by side!!
Orcas at SeaWorld often perform because they want to, and they don't have to as they receive plenty of food anyway. This and what they do at SeaWorld is exactly the same.
@@kawaiiyanderlee9616 This is natural behaviors. The tricks they do at marine parks are 'extensions' of these, but often are nothing even close. Have you ever seen a wild orca beach itself and spin around, flop its tongue out and shake its head, spray people with water.....
Captive killer whales perform because they HAVE to, they dont get fed if they dont do tricks. They are not happy to perform or be humiliated. Do you seriously think an intelligent being is happy living in such conditions? Do you not see the immense amount of stress and boredom that captive whales and dolphins experience?
The headstand maneuver is the one that intrigues me most.
What a wonderful video of Killer Whales
Now this would only happen in my dreams to be a whale photographer
Fantastic. The video is just great. We had the pleasure of making trips with Garry Henkel.
Wonderful and beautiful... I love orcas
I love Whales when they start frolicking about in the water.... Makes me smile 🌼🌸🌼 much ❤️
I love dolphins because they are so cool looking 🐬🐬🐬🐬🐬
lmao why do the dolphins at the end look so done with life XD
This is fabulous! Thank you!
This video is fantastic! Seeing these animals having fun in their natural habitat really shows how cruel it can be keeping them in captivity. Thanks for the upload.
They are trying to have fun cause they have nothing to do in the wild.
Nothing to do???? Seriously???? Anyone whop knows anything about orca realises that they would have PLEANTY to do - Migrating, mating, Hunting for food, Raising young/interacting with their pod mates,etc.
Tsekeris on
Amazing & beautiful

Join the Miracle March for Lolita Saturday January 17, 2015 at Miami Seaquarium Miami Florida. It is to be the largest event of its kind in U.S. history for a captive cetacean. Take the Pledge: Don't buy a ticket to a captive whale or dolphin show.
W4RJ. Oh yes, that was very successful.
I knew it. BC, and the Bamfield area to be more specific.
Hi Soren. I'm making a short film for the shishalh museum about an orca in sechelt. Could I maybe use some of your footage from this video? Let me know. Thanks.
Cue Michael Jackson- ‘Will You be there’ from Free Willy.
can i share it to bilibili(much like youtube in china)?just to show how fascinating these wildlife are!
Can I use your footages ? I will credit you.
Blackfish 🐱🐱🐱🐱
what's the music?
even the orcas can do wheelie
BC waters ?
Yes. The boat left from Campbell River.
Makes me think, when they do exactly the same stuff at SeaWorld what they do is called "circus tricks".
Horale muchas ballenas es tiempo de ballenas son mchas
I haven't seen a single whale on this video, have you?
they were all whales - dolphins are a type of toothed whale.
