the thing is Pilots sometimes chase Orcas away, when stopping, Orcas chase them and so on. It is mostly a huge Pilot group who chases a small group of Orcas. You can find Videos Orcas killing lonesome Pilot. Think it is something like Waterbuffalos chasing a lion pride...they are a threat but also prey. And in most regions Orcas and Pilots are not fighting for food, thats a false information too.
A bit more research and this is clearly a bit of over-hype. For example the prey list of both species is largely different. The pilot whales DO NOT 'give Orcas the shivers'.
They look like Dolphins who didn't watch their diet and drank too much beer.

Maybe headbutted some stuff too
โฆ.and never moved off campus ๐
I think they look similar to a beluga only darker color.
@@Hawken54
Exactly! But poor Belugas are prey to even polar bears. Only if they have similar abilities to the Pilot Whales. That would be nice for their species.
When I was a teenager, we used to surf and sometimes these guys would be right next to us in the waves. It would freak me out but once you knew it wasn't sharks, you'd actually feel safer having them around.
A pity, perhaps. If Orcas and the like knew how vile WE were, they'd be attacking us to pull out OUR liver. After all, we are killing their world, as well as our own, and murder them anyway, as we do all animals, but Orcas are actually as stupid as all animals and don't KNOW we do this, so not clever anyway, but then, neither are we, cos we can't live without the planet we are killing every day. Ha! Losers!
Pilot whales are slaughtered annually as they pass through the Faroes Islands on their migratory route. The islanders corner them in a bay, stick hooks in their bodies to prevent them from escaping and kill them with machete blows. The bay turns red with blood. The islands belong to Denmark, which protects the massacre with its navy. The killing is done for fun as they do not need the meat as they live off industrial fishing. Pilot whales move in families, fathers, mothers, children and nephews.
I almost got head butted by a dolphin. I was setting up for a wave and it came within 6 inches. That feeling of a shark jumping at you is crazy. Luckily it was a dolphin and barely missed me
Imagine your headstone saying "Eaten By a Shark While Surfing".
Imagine being eaten by a shark
It should be noted; Pilot whales are the second loudest species on earth, with their vocal range reaching up to 240khz. This may have something to do with the orcas avoiding them. Loud sounds can disorient an orca. It's believed that a sperm whale, being able to achieve sounds of up to 270khz, can actually paralyze an orca if the sound wave hits them directly multiple times. This may be the case with Pilot whales, too.
Agree. The only reason Orcas stay away from sperm whales is because of the loud sound they make. Not because they are scared of them hunting them.
I remember a female diver trying to swim with sperm whale being victim to a ultrasound that hurt her very badly and she was lucky to survive. With some animals you just shouldn't get into the water.
Wow very good to know.Such mesml Thanks for sharing your knowledge of the whales ๐ค
Thanks for sharing ๐ that was very knowledgeable. I had no clue that these whales were so loud. Very intelligent creatures. We take them for granted by capturing and slaughtering them or selling them to aquariums like SeaWorld. I understand if the whales Injured or in need of our assistance but to capture them for the parks pretending to use them as knowledge for the public when they leave all of these parts out when your dining with shamu. Just saying the public almost caused SeaWorld to go bankrupt after the attack from a killer whale. Made promises to drop there breeding program yet another orca got pregnant after this bill was signed and supposedly they mated through the gates since a male orcas private parts reach the length of 13 feet. But that was bs and people still support them. Smh. Hope I shared something knowledgeable as well. Save our whales and marine life!
240kHz is not a measure of their loudness, it is a frequency that we would call ultrasonic. maybe they can see your insides :D loudness is measured in decibels (dB) and anything above 100dB is painful to humans.
i once had the experience of snorkeling with a pod of pilot whales in mid ocean, We were on a dive boat between Florida and the Bahamas when the dive master announced we were surrounded by a pod of pilot whales He stopped the boat and offered us the opportunity join the whales .The water was flat calm and crystal clear. We jumped in and were surrounded on all sides with adults and babies alike. they took little notice of us and seemed content to keep milling about the dive boat. Although it was over 30 years ago, I can still close my eyes and replay those images in my mind today.
Wow! Thank you for sharing.
How do you walk around with such huge balls ?
@@SovietMOB No balls required, just swim fins and a snorkel . Incidentally, My wife was with me at the time. See, no balls required at all.
Without scuba I kayacked out to a moving heard of these off Malibu in the early 70's and with just mask and snorkel I dove down roughly into the middle of their midst. I was astonished at how big they all were. A trio of smaller ones came near me as I treaded water in water so deep I could not see the bottom. I heard their whistles and felt their calls ripple through me sonicly. It was an experience I'll never forget. There had to be a few dozen and they were moving north. It was a hard paddle to catch up to them. The water was crystal clear and I could see many from my viewpoint. I was Alone at the time ~ I always tried to share this experience but it's just hard to imagine. EPIC !!!

Ahahah well the false killer whale should be mad for being named as such its like saying theyre fake killer whales made in china

The number one reason for stranding is the navy's use of sonar that in fact causes damage to ear drums
I was anchored with my sailboat on the BAJA side of the sea of Cortez near Loreto. I saw what looked like a pod of dolphins approaching us. I got my 2 grand kids up to see them. As they got closer, I realized that they looked too big. Hey! Those arenโt dolphins, theyโre PILOT WHALES! Wow. My grand kids and I quickly jumped in my 12โ rigid inflatable dingy and took of with the pod. I had to be on a plane to keep up with them. They were doing 8-10 kts with no effort. We followed with them for about a quarter mile. Unlike dolphins that will often play with you when you do this, they completely ignored us. An amazing experience.
Very interesting video, you donโt hear much about Pilot Whales. Thanks. PS. The Sea of Cortez, Mexico is an amazing place for whale and dolphin experiences. We had a giant Blue Whale come right up to us while we were sailing along. He paralleled us for about half a mile so close that his pectoral fin rubbed the hull a little. He was at least 80 feet! Nearly twice the length of our 46โ sailboat. Yeah, another amazing Sea of Cortez experience. And I could go on. Capt Fred.

Watching this video today, I learned something.
An act of dominance. Diver was just being told, "Look, I'm not your puppy dog.".
Fun fact: Orcas will figure how to overcome pilot in five years๐๐คฃ those black and white bros have scientists and researchers within them๐๐
Pilot whale has bigger pod +100 individuals
The only reason the Orcas avoid the pilots is probably because of the size of the pod. Take 3 Orcas and 3 pilot whales and the Orcas would butcher them.
Say whaaaat!?! Iโve never heard this before and I pride myself on my orca knowledge.. simply wow

This is new.......never imagined this animal could mimic orca echolocation and at a higher frequency. Still in awe
If I was a Mother Humped Back Whale or any other large whale Mother with a new calf, I would make sure to be close to these lil heros.
In the early 1960s my family would vacation at Ormand Beach near Daytona. We saw pods of dolphins every day and it was a real treat to see pilot whales about every other day.๐Of my many trips to the beach since the 1980s I haven't seen a pilot whale since. All ocean mammals populations have been reduced, but I miss pilot whales the most
So because you haven't seen pilot whales at a particular beach you conclude that "all ocean mammals populations have been reduced". Glad you are not a scientist with that false logic. By the way pilot whales are actually terrible "pilots" and they beach themselves way more often than any other species.

Love these dolphins for their behaviors against the bullies of the sea. One thing they should pick up from the bullies is to eat white sharks and leopard seals of the southern oceans.
Pilot whales generally have larger groups, and both species are intelligent group animals, this why Orca tend to avoid serious confrontation due to the number imbalance. 1 on 1 it is not even a contest.
My father theorized that Whales beached themselves due to interference from submarine Sonar and other frequency emissions

Here in Tenerife there's a huge resident group of short finned pilot whales. I was working as a cameraman on a whale watching boat, amazing experience!!! You can see Tenerife's pods at 1:00 and at 4:51 with Teide volcano covered in snow. Beautiful.
Amazing
Yeah i went on a watch when i was about 10. Threw up on the boat but just after they appeared. Worth it.
Back in the 1960s Pilot Whales were being trained by the US Navy to help in retrieving deep ocean . They were diving down to 3000 feet

Sonar from ships is why they beach themselves to get away from the sound
As these two species are two of the most intelligent at sea, cooperation, games may not be excluded between killer and pilot whales
Can they hybridize?
Cat like guppies. Yes, cheetahs of the sea.
Fun fact pilot whales similar to orcas are actually husky n large dolphins whose size put them in the whale weight class
This is my first time hearing of these fascinating creatures.
I seen that footage of Lisa Costello and was horrified, relieved yet horrified. I wanted to be a marine biologist but saw an episode of Jacque Cousteau and they showed a huge whales eye just under the surface of the water and under the rubber boat and that freaked me out. Of course JAWS came out and sealed the deal. I gave up my dream of becoming a marine Biologist and now live in a land locked state and I own an African Cichlid fish store..
Also, careers in marine biology are scarce and competitive.

Orcas that eat sea mammals would probably not be as intimidated as those that primarily eat fish. I am not convinced that Orcas in general are scared of Pilot whales. A large group however could threaten a small pod of Orca. Not with being harmed so much as being harassed to the point of driving them away.
Pilot Whales drive off Orcas, and Sperm Whales (the individually most powerful apex predators) actually fuck them up (as well as many species of great whales such as Humpbacks).
Only humans with current technology generally lack something to worry about in terms of conflict with other species.
Right. The mammal eaters are quite ambush hunters. More aggressive and fearless .. theyโre confusing smart with fear. Orcaโ fear nothing but god. The name itself orcinus orca 'of the kingdom of the dead,' the champion of the deep ๐๐ณ the whale killer..we call killer whale now.
In the Falkland Islands on saunders island theres a pilot whale graveyard . I think it was a stranding of 126 of them but the place is so remote and tge water so cold they couldn't be saved . My tour of duty despite being cold wet and windy most of the time had a few days of majestic beauty leaving images that will stick with me for life .
That melon is adorable
Growing up in Nova Scotia my Grandparents lived on the shores of St Margarets Bay and Pilot whales would hunt the Mackerel which we would fish for fun. The Pilot whale were amazing to watch as they flew out of the water doing flips. Whole schools of them, it was so cool.

That was a very extensive, informative video on pilot whales. Most of it I've never heard before.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Gotta love the tube sometimes
Pilot whales donโt get as much pub as the orca thatโs for sure
The pilot whale's mimicry could be an attempt to lure orcas into a trap.
I love Orcas โ๏ธโ๏ธโ๏ธโ๏ธโ๏ธโ๏ธ
Im surprised by a lot of this info. Ive heard of polot whales washing ashore and hearing it was killed by an orca. I can see how an individual could be targeted for food and vice versa if an entire pod came by a solo orca they could likely kill it. I could also see a large pilot pod being aggressive or territorial to an orca pod if there were babies in the pod or they were feeding. That's really interesting to hear an orca raising a pilot whale, theyre known to have string motherly instincts even after theyre young grow into maturity, but never heard that theyll raise another species
Years ago I got to go to Catalina with my uncle Johnny Biby. He had a beautiful Grand Banks trawler named Cottora.
As we approached the island we were joined by a large group of Pilot Whales. We watched as they dove on munchies around the entrance to the harbor.
They are big dogs for sure.
Frankly I love whales but i watch this thinking the best way to see a whale (or the best emotional response) is by fluke. years ago I was living in the Pilbara region of WA and at the end of one of the really long wharves up there. Whales had become endangered and one hadn't been seen for decades. as i stood there watching the expanse of the ocean i saw something on the horizon and it was coming toward me. at that time i had no concept it was a whale. I stood there and continued to watch it and it went basically directly underneath me (and the wharf) and then kept on swimming. no one was there with me at the time and no one believed me. About five years later my dad saw one and then he believed me. Their numbers are greater now, but i can honestly say it was a magnificent and unexpected and even magical experience.
I really wish the Faro Islands would stop hunting them๐ข

Yes!!! What those people do is horrific, sadistic and primitive.
I wonder if the Orcas leave, when Pilots are around.. Because Pilot Whales are one of the few creatures that can eat a baby Orca.
And, although much slower than orcas, pilots in numbers can catch young orcs.
As I understand it, during the era of whaling, Pilot whales were almost wiped out. Could it be that the depletion of the Pilots opened a spot atop the apex currently occupied by the Orcas - and since the Pilots are making a comeback (even absent an accurate count) perhaps this explains the unusually cautious behavior in a species better known for being amongst nature's most dramatic "show offs"? Wonderful video G

Sound like the guy from NFS Hot Pursuit 2 (GameCube) when he talks about these Whales & how fast they go ๐
Orcas would still kill these whales it's just they have a defensive system to protect each other
Theyre flipping dolphins, all of em.
duh...
We were snorkelling on the Great Barrier reef a few years back when a pod of pilot whales arrived.
On first sight of those dorsal fins we thought they were huge sharks and got out of the water fast.
Once we realised they were pilot whales we jumped back in to watch them. We had absolutely no idea they might be dangerous.
Unfortunately (or fortunately) by the time we got back in they were moving away from us, and too far off to see clearly.
Re your last line, the danger was probably as much as with orca / sharks, anyway. No recorded attacks. Species in question smart enough to know 'all kinds of hell could break loose' should they choose to attack a human.
_Practically every single intelligent species on the planet by now will realise we're the worst that's ever existed._
You ever feel like you just kinda slid over to a new world line? I swear there's no way I've never heard of these before now, this can't be the same earth I was on before
Always believed they were called pilot whales bcz they were known to swim ahead of boats entering and leaving harbour
I thought pilot whales just wore dark sunglasses & flew planes.
They flew the Enola Gay.

Whales are washed ashore in great numbers every year. It's probably the fault of the locator and sociality.
They've also occured at the same time as a new Wendy's opening. The "military" uses sonar 24/7/365 in every ocean they go. Highly unlikely there is any correlation.
gigantic dolphin really...
Orcas hunt pilot whales on occasion. That day though orcas may of choosen different prey. Not only that but animals don't always fight em.
Very informative, well done, thank you!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Pilot Whales are basically a small orca or the middle cousin in the dolphin family. Orcas are still twice as big and in general are alot more powerful, but as we know dolphins work in packs
I see these every so often not a lot but they are very different from anything Iโve seen thatโs a mammal in the water
Once I was trying to catch fish in Florida in a pass/inlet and there was a huge school of mullet around. Bottle nosed dolphins showed up and herded the mullet together and attacked. Then something bigger showed up and took over. They must have been pilot whales or maybe false killer whales, I don't know which. But they were bigger than the dolphins by quite a bit, and dark. It was fascinating to see. I grew up fishin' in that area and spent a crazy amount of time around the bay and beaches of Sarasota. That's the only time I ever saw those animals, whatever they were.
Another time in Costa Rica I saw something very similar, dolphins feeding and something bigger and darker showed up. Both times they were a little too far away for a good look. In Costa Rica I was on the Pacific Coast, so it probably wasn't the same kind both times.

I was fortunate to see pilot whales near Moโorea Tahiti while swimming near humpback whales. The pilot whales would seem to keep the oceanic white tip sharks away which were also in the area.
How do you know
I remember riding these to school
bruh pulled out the thesaurus to make the video 10 minutes
This video showcases the astonishing agility of pilot whales, who prove they are the 'cheetahs of the deep.' Even killer whales, known for their prowess, hesitate when encountering these oceanic acrobats.
Witnessing these majestic creatures in their element is truly awe-inspiring. It's a testament to the extraordinary world beneath the waves. ๐๐
Hit like if you're as fascinated by marine life as I am! ๐

To be honest, I don't understand why they are called cheetahs. The mako shark looks like a cheetah of the sea - it is a loner, very slender and light, mobile, is an active predator and develops speeds up to 120-130 km/ h.
โ@@ibrahimsultanov7355this is the one time i agree with you, pilot whales cant even catch orcas in a sprint or reach them, and cheetahs dont have huge numbers. Cheetah of the sea would be mako like you said, smaller but much faster and very agile
Cheetas of the deep sea. (U can google it)
The cheetas of the sea are Shortfin mako sharks
@@floseatyard8063This is not a military time, lol. Last time you agreed with me that a killer whale bite can't be 19,000 psi. Apparently you have a bad memory.
Truly amazing and Thank you for sharing this ๐๐๐๐

I've never heard of Pilot whales and I've been watching animal shows since I was a young teen .
That non-indigenous people are still allowed to hunt these creatures using any kind of technology or machinery is so deplorable.
Announcer: "... Lise Costello and her friend... a cameraman... "
Me: Oh, he safe. Must be her finna get it. The cameraman is ALWAYS safe. It's the unwritten rule. ๐ณ
Still a mystery why Pilots and Minkes seem to beach themselves more often than other whales.

Maybe there're just more of them. Those are pretty big ?pods?
Itโs the navy doing sonic underwater and it messes up their navigation. And possible gives them head trauma so they beach themselves.
Powerful military sonars are more dangerous to the spicies with more advanced natural sonars like pilot whales have
โ@@mandybrooks5789interesting theory
Surely you can't be serious?

If this all be true then great white sharks can be on their menu also.

Pilot whales travel in larger groups than Orcas which is why Orcas may avoid them. Their slaughter is horrific.
I've heard of pilot whales ๐ but didn't realise they are a hindrance to the Mighty Orca.I guess you learn something new everyday.
Excellent short documentary. Quite a few things I havenโt heard about Pilot Whales before.

There are a lot of top predators in the ocean. Giant hammerhead shark, sea leopard, polar bear, saltwater crocodile, many species of sharks and whales in adulthood, and so on.
I live on the coast of Southern California and we frequently see small pods of short-finned pilot whales swimming just beyond the surf line. Unlike porpoise (dolphins), they seem to be in our area all-year round.
They're avoiding to each other because they're very similar spesis....
Directly from the Wikipedia information. Good videos add to a good look at these animals.
Merci du partage! Peut-รชtre faudrait-il mettre un รฉcran gรฉant dans l'eau pour montrer ร ces animaux marins d'autres parties du monde, et d'autres espรจces animales. Juste pour voir le niveau de curiositรฉ et de comprรฉhension qui pourront avoir de ces images? Stรฉph.
Thanks for sharing! Maybe we should put a giant screen in the water to show these marine animals other parts of the world, and other animal species. Just to see the level of curiosity and understanding they might have of these images? Stรฉph.
