- That's My Baby episode featuring Katina, a killer whale at SeaWorld Orlando, and her pregnancy and birth of her calf, Ikaika.
I have uploaded this video under fair use for educational purposes. That's My Baby originally aired on Animal Planet.
Oh, Tina's such a AWESOME mom and so much more.
Oh my goodness! Baby Ikaika!!! Oh he grew up to be so big!!! Katina has now had six calves in her life. Kalina (original Baby Shamu), Katerina, Taku, Unna, Ikaika, Nalani (inbred with her son Taku) and Makaio. Four of these babies, were Tilikum’s also. Katina is a great, great grandmother as well. She’s now 46 years old and is still the matriarch of the Orlando pod. Katina is an awesome mother, grandmother, great grandmother and great great grandmother. She’s also very patient and very sweet. Katina’s favorite trainer ever for sure was Laura. Laura and Katina had an amazing bond. They were there for each other always, she’s made almost all of the trainers at Seaworld Orlando the way they are today. Thank you Kat, we love you.
I've been looking for this episode for years!!! Thank you!!!!
I been looking for this everywhere!! Thank you for posting it!
Awe baby Ike
Katina is the greatest. They scored when they got her. I love Laura! Katina & Laura are tight nit. Still to this day. Katina has never agressed on a trainer. I wish Katina could see ike he’s huge! I still think tillikums first son Kyuqout looks most like tillikum. Ike is long so he doesn’t look as wide as Ky. Katina is still the highest flyer in the pod lol I love it. I wish Taku was still here I wonder why he was interested in his mom lol
Sexual behavior is a bonding and common social behavior for killer whales, and other species of cetaceans, even among family members. They do not hold our social mores and we cannot see them as we see humans, that's anthropomorphizing. Genetic studies on the Southern residents have shown that calves happen between close relatives from time to time, including father-daughter and mother-son pairings. For a time, J1 and L41 fathered more than half the calves in the Southern resident population, even among females belonging to their own familial pods. Mating for whatever reason can result in a calf and their behavior means it can happen even with close relatives.
@@seawolftheorca oh wow and activists get mad when a calf is inbred a Seaworld.
John Hargrove and naomi rose said it NEVER happens in the wild
No matter what Seaworld does it’s never good enough to them
awww taku and baby ike
Laura is so awesome with these whales..
I love when this is showing her tongue at the doctor when doctor is talking about her pregnancy.
That's Taima actually
Oh my gosh, baby Ike 🥺❤️

LOL
today is his 21st birthday
I just want to touch them see how they feel i love them Whales and they all families
They are so beautiful what happen to tillikum after the attacks i dont blame him ,i just assumed being taken so young and being picked on by the other wells caused an emotionalor tramstic sychosis like PTSD like in humans its possible i beleive because of the characteristics PTSD and humans can cause the human to be fine and the next minute without warning they snap and that is kind of what Tillikum did in my heart of hearts I think that he really loved on I really do I think that it's unfortunate but I really believe that he loved her I've watched the videos I believe he really did love her and Annie snapped and I don't think they really realized what he was doing to her I just think that he went blank just like people do
It would be entirely possible that he could have some sort of issues. It is know that trauma can cause issues in animals, however, I would hesitate to make any diagnosis on an animal (and "psychosis" is freely thrown about in certain circles) without being a professional who worked hands on and knew them personally and their history in depth. It's only until relatively recently we've started taking mental health in humans seriously, and other species, especially one with such a small sample size in zoological institutions are going to be even further behind on that research. Especially given the more difficult nature of studying an animals that lives in a completely different environment, different behaviors, and we just can't speak to them.
