Pretty damn intense. She ends up shooing the sea lion off the boat. Which is probably the right thing to do, but I'd have a hard time doing it in her shoes.

Couldnt she just drive the boat away while the sea lion was still aboard?


Pretty sure it's illegal to have your engine on near orcas. Besides, they gotta eat too. Don't really think it's really her place to "save" their lunch.

Even if it wasn't, that many could have easily wricked her boat as they tried to get it. She's lucky.nothing rammed her.

Laws protecting Orcas of all species are ridiculous. These whales are evil and are undeserving of the positive perception people have of them.

You can't be serious

They torture their prey and have killed more people than great white sharks.

Is it any different from house cats playing with their prey?

There has never been a documented fatal attack from a wild orca.

@GranolaPanic

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Killer_whale_attack

In the wild, there have been no fatal recorded attacks on humans

not that I think how dangerous an animal is to humans makes them more or less "evil", but orca attacks are super rare.

Okay explain to me how an orca attack is supposed to occur in the wild. No one in their right mind is going to be that close to one in the wild that they would have a chance to be killed by them. Theyre always in a boat not swimming next to them.

One time at sea world I was sitting down in the front row and one of the orcas splashed me with water so hard that I felt like my lungs were about to collapse.

https://www.ifaw.org/journal/are-dolphins-whales
Toothed whales include dolphins and orcas, or killer whales, as theyre often known. In fact, orcas are the largest dolphins, growing to be about 32 feet (10 meters) long. Many dolphins only average eight to nine feet (2-3 meters) in length.

So yes, orcas are dolphins, and dolphins are whales!

i wouldn't say anything if i wasn't sure i was right

How does this make her remotely moronic? She's rightfully freaking out because she's surrounded by dangerous animals.

How is she a buffoon? It was a scary/intense situation that she wasn't prepared for.

I'd still be pretty intimidated if I were surrounded by what appears to be at least 4 orcas that want to eat something on my boat.

They would just beg for scraps. Orcas pretty much know humans = free food. The worst they would do is steal fish off a line.

You're probably right, but I'm still not exacly going to be feeling great about being surrounded by a bunch of apex predators who just chased their morning snack onto my boat.

Orcas are extremely intelligent, they can tell the difference between a human and a seal.
