If you want to interact with it, get your ass in the water you moron. That is just teasing the animal. It wants to investigate that ball, and all you do is hit the window with it, which is loud underwater. Do the Orca a favour: Stop trying to do shit with it, unless you know what you're doing, which you show you do not. Get in the water with it. I've been in the water with hundreds diving, along with many sharks. Go learn about how bad what you're doing is.
@sklarich1 Wow, you are quite stupid. Teasing?Captive orcas and dolphins interact with guests this way ALL. THE. TIME. Orcas are not stupid, Trua knows he can not go through the glass. He is simply playing with a guest (me) the only way he can. Orcas are more intelligent than you give them credit for, he is simply observing and responding to what I am doing. Before this video I he was also enjoying looking at himself in the mirror, but then preferred when i threw the ball. Learn before you speak
no offense....but you are pathetic.. you anti caps have the dumbest reasons to be anti caps! Hurt its neck? if the whale started to feel pain he would of left DUH!
Es ist unverantwortlich, diese hochentwickelten Tiere in Gefangenschaft zu halten, weil ihnen selbst die elementarsten Grundbedürfnisse vorenthalten werden.
Animals don´t belong in captivity, they don´t exist for our amusement. By liking videos like this you´re accepting what´s going on in Japan. Taiji, Japan capture orcas and sell them, capture dolphins and sell them, slaughter the dolphins they don´t sell, kill pilot whales etc.
@ChristinaSwe You need to be less ignorant. In the US, very few animals are captured because we have a very successful captive breeding program. If you want to stop what's going on in Japan, speak up to *them*. Please keep in mind captivity is all these orcas have ever known and ever will know. If they were released, they'd die. Believe it or not, they're happy where they are; they get excellent care, love, and attention.
@ChristinaSwe Please learn what you are talking about. A) The whales in SeaWorld are either injured and recovered or were born in captivity. B) This is not Japan, this is the U.S. C) The issues in Japan are getting worked out, if you actually kept up with the news you'd know that.
You really need to stop this. There is a difference between trying to help and plan ignorance, and that is what this is, ignorance. Commenting on a video will not help, try being proactive about it instead of lazy.
@FMAluver14 the hunting season is over... is that what you meant? everyone is entitled to their own opinion. I´m saying that people don´t know whats going on and that we need to raise awareness to all animals who are treated bad. for instance Lolita in Miami. I´m not saying we should move all orcas in captivity, but we need make sure no "new" animals are captivated. please see the bigger picture, it´s not about the U.S, it´s about the world. It´s ignorant of humans to captivate animals..
@ChristinaSwe Once again, If you actually knew what you were talking about, you'd know that the orcas and other animals at SeaWorld were either INJURED AND COULD NOT BE RELEASED BACK TO THE WILD, or BORN IN CAPTIVITY. Any "new" animals that come in are the injured ones that need help to survive. If you actually do the research and actually visit these places, you learn about this stuff. 2 days ago I went to the SeaWorld in Orlando. Found out that the seaturtles they have were injured by boats.
@FMAluver14 read my comment again. no orcas captivated should be released. 2) once more, I´m not talking about all the GOOD places like seaworld orlando. I´m talking about all the other places like the tanks in Rimini. therefore I´m not talking about the US in particular!!! once again, I want to raise awareness to people not knowing all bad stuff going on in OTHER places. But, once again, me personally - I don´t want orcas to exist for my amusement. Everyone is entitled to their own opinion!
@ChristinaSwe Yes they are, but you keep pressing their release, and did you know that it was proven, scientifically, that the orcas actually like performing? orcas are very sociable and love the attention. the shows make them physically and mentally happy.
@FMAluver14 I´m not pressing their release as I don´t think that the orcas presently in captivity should be released. I am pressing that awareness should be raised to the problem that wild orcas are captured and sold.
@FMAluver14 ..."the shows make them physically and mentally happy"...R U kiddin me!?...locked up in a small pool and forced to perform tricks...if you replaced that orca with a human child i doubt you would find it as entertaining...i dont like seeing any living creature caged up for any reason...
@SteveSabbai A) They're not forced to do anything. If any orca refuses to perform, they don't perform. B) It has been proven that the attention they get, not only from the trainers but the audience as well, makes them happy. Please, if you're gonna comment, do your freaking research. These orcas at seaworld are either RESCUED ORCAS THAT CAN'T BE RELEASED or BORN IN CAPTIVITY THAT CAN'T BE RELEASED. In both cases, the orca would DIE if released, murdered. So you support orca murder? Wow, lowlife
@FMAluver14 1st: any chance you can have a respectable conversation without being rude and calling names? 2nd:you are aware of how animals are "trained" right? physical abuse/starvation, if you dont believe me jus research it and you will see how animals are being "trained" for these types of shows. im not saying all trainers do that but enough do. the owners of animals in captivity are only nice to them when people/cameras are around. 3:so what research did you do to back up your comments???
@SteveSabbai Um,actually no. Cause if there were any evidence found of animal abuse of ANY kind, all seaworlds would be shut down. When you run a place like seaworld, they get inspections for that stuff, all the time. Its not hard to look stuff up/ask the right people
@FMAluver14 ..yor right about seaworld ive never heard any kind of abuses from them but the circus and other animal shows ive heard that peta or someone went undercover and got videos of trainers abusing animals. so sad. but then again the people from Peta are not so innocent themselves check out this link youtube.com/watch?v=7kXUPy-dCx4 or search Bullshit! S02E01 - P.E.T.A
@SteveSabbai I don't doubt at all that circuses and animal shows have, they believe they can get away with it because they travel, they can easily avoid the inspections/ trade out animals in time for inspections. But at seaworld, they can't avoid it.
@FMAluver14 btw, I do think that you can make a difference by commenting, perhaps this will lead to one more person looking into the situation and taking a stand. I´m not a lazy person, I´m actually doing proactive work, most recently in sri lanka. There is a bigger world outside the US, and I think you need to be aware of everything just as much as the rest of the world.
@ChristinaSwe I am perfectly aware of the world around me and whats going on in other countries, but in case you forgot, this had to do with the "save the whales" comment you've got going. Yay, you're proactive about other issues, but in the area that you're trying to "change" you're not helping by commenting on a video. You're actually making things worse. You release a captive orca to the wild, it dies in weeks. Is that what you're trying to support?
yes Trua is definitively a boy. Him and Tillikum and the new baby now named Makaio are the only male Orcas at Seaworld Orlando. I go to seaworld alot with my girlfriend and she knows alot of the trainers so yes Trua is a beautiful 5 year old baby orca. and for the people saying "oh the poor whale.." for gods sake go to seaworld and interact with the animals and tell me they arent happy..they are the happiest animals i have ever seen.Trua in particular.
@metridium Why can't you just say something original? You do nothing but quote other people. At least make an attempt to get people to take you seriously
This was one really really fucking really boring video. waste of time. Kept flipping the god damn ball up in the air over and over and over again. Have some creativity ffs woman.
@1edbassmasterfan1 oh man u must have not been to Seaworld and just heard someone say that. I went to Seaworld "Quite Often" my friend. I think we all know more than u. I even asked the trainers. Its Tilly and Trua. Please do ur research or just go there to ask questions urself
Jesus christ. There's a difference between disagreeing with something and such outright, ridiculous detailed hatred, it's blatently bitter jealousy. What the fuck is wrong with people, I swear :/
Kudos for you AquaOrca for not being affected by it! People are pathetic. Also, saying mirrors are bad 'cos it makes them "less special" is like withholding fish to make that reinforcement more powerful. It's just not good. It's all enrichment for the whales, as shown by their reactions. It's lovely.
Actually he wasnt really interacting with you, he liked the ball. The end. Interacting is interacting. Throwing a ball means throwing a ball. Interacting means you actually doing something with them. Its wierd, he usually copies you and sticks his tongue out, he did that to me a couple years back when i wasn't anti-captivity. xD
It would be really nice if all the hateful comments that a select few are spamming on this video are removed. If you don't like the video then don't watch it again. It's ridiculous to spam the comments section with hateful words over and over. Grow up!
¿ me interacting with trua i interacted with him in a ton of short bursts before this...? jajajajajjajajajajjaja what an asss, wait i have an idea why dont u ask there for a job u could be the intermediate show u could also dress up like a whale and run from one place to another shouting that would result as pathetic as this STOP DOING IT FOR GOD'S SAKE! U ARE EMBARASSSSSSIIIIIIINNNGGGG!!
"Alone they are bereft of defense, and when alone they exhibit their own form of "co-operation" with those who might destroy them.

@sparxstreak02 if you look very closely on his right white eye patch you will see a black dot and on the lower part of his chin on his left side you can see a couple little black dots. also his tail has a birthmark where it looks like he has a good amount of tail missing enough to be noticeable a good distance away. Hes my personal favorite so i learned how to spot him:)
yeah sorry I don't spend every day reading and replying to retarded comments from ignorant people who don't know what they are talking about, but I generally have better things to do.
What? then why the fuck did you comment me again..After i hadnt said anything for a month?? you are an idiot. So once again this my last comment..I hope you dont try to be the idiot and recomment me.
at 0:13 i push people out of the way? really? looks to me like I tossed the ball, went to catch it, that girl backed up so I could catch it, and then I went back to my original spot. Yeah I'm so violent! And what the hell do you know what I think or feel? What the fuck is your problem?
are you like jealous of her or something just because she was interacting with an orca? Cause it REALLY sounds like it. Interacting with an animal like that is something special.
how do you know, I mean it wouldnt surprise me if she is pregnant because her and Ky have been on a mating spree since she arrived; but whats your source?
Gaah that sux -_-...i mean im excited that shes having a calf, i just wish it wasnt with Tillikum, he's way overused when it comes to captive breeding, its just setting in a possibility of future inbreeding, although I doubt it could have been helped, its not like she was A/ied. I assumed the calf was fathered by Kyuquet, ive been informed that she's been mating with him nonstop since she arrived at SWT xDDD
Mirrors are okay because when I interacted with Trua on sunday there was a really mean old man educator that told me not to use my ball like yours. I was trowing the ball up and down like you and he was like "stop your not allowed to do that" so I was like okay and I took out my mirror and he didnt say anything about that.
Yeah you can bring stuff to interact but it really depends on the educators. Some educators are nice and let you interact while others are mean and dont even let you use a mirror.
"There is nothing wrong with using a mirror. Many people use mirrors at SeaWorld to interact. Its allowed, and I bring a mirror to places I go to with cetaceans as well. The mirror doesnt effect training or anything, they are just having fun looking at themselves, its a great way to interact without signals which would be wrong."
Actually they aren't good because the trainers use them and wouldn't be as much as a reward. where do you hear this?!
I know but swc lets you interact but they just don't want mirrors because it's what the trainers use but go ahead and use the mirror if you want but just be carefull.
LOL, is that a Koosh ball? I love those. Hours of entertainment! Very, very cute! Don't feel bad about the mirror. I would have done the same thing. I've never seen a trainer use one for anything other than play.
well, first thing, you shouldn't use mirrors because you're not allowed to use what trainers use and you can't signal either a girl called tikilina is why they don't want you to interact. pm me for details there's more behind a 10 year old than you will think.
How exactly would a mirror effect any training or progress? Yes signaling is a no-no, I am well aware of that...but a mirror? Sorry I can't see your point.
There is nothing wrong with using a mirror. Many people use mirrors at SeaWorld to interact. Its allowed, and I bring a mirror to places I go to with cetaceans as well. The mirror doesnt effect training or anything, they are just having fun looking at themselves, its a great way to interact without signals which would be wrong.
They only yell at you if they catch you actually signaling one of the animals. There are several lil' girls out there who visit parks and signal the animals just for the fun of it. It disrupts traing, and SeaWorld staff has taken extra precaution.
Good thing Tillikum wasn't in that tank at the time.

You pushed ppl out of the way so you could do it.. And you liked the fact that they watched you. You think your special. YOUR NOT!

at 0:13 i push people out of the way? really? looks to me like I tossed the ball, went to catch it, that girl backed up so I could catch it, and then I went back to my original spot. Yeah I'm so violent! And what the hell do you know what I think or feel? What the fuck is your problem?
AquaOrca 2 years ago
are you like jealous of her or something just because she was interacting with an orca? Cause it REALLY sounds like it. Interacting with an animal like that is something special.

Whaa, I'm so jealous, I want to see a real killer whale too, but I guess I prefer the wild ones.
But still this is so cute! =)

Gaah that sux -_-...i mean im excited that shes having a calf, i just wish it wasnt with Tillikum, he's way overused when it comes to captive breeding, its just setting in a possibility of future inbreeding, although I doubt it could have been helped, its not like she was A/ied. I assumed the calf was fathered by Kyuquet, ive been informed that she's been mating with him nonstop since she arrived at SWT xDDD

Ok, maybe throwing the ball a couple times is cute and OK, but that much? Thats kinda unnecesary. Thats what gets anti-captivity people pissed.

^um that comment was pretty stupid.
How was it unnecesary if trua liked it? Believe me my arm was getting tired but he liked it so he got it.

so you can just lyk bring stuff to interact with the orcas? where did you get your ball and mirror?
Goblet0fire 4 years ago
sorry, i meant to say that to oceanlovex3.
Goblet0fire 4 years ago
Mirrors are okay because when I interacted with Trua on sunday there was a really mean old man educator that told me not to use my ball like yours. I was trowing the ball up and down like you and he was like "stop your not allowed to do that" so I was like okay and I took out my mirror and he didnt say anything about that.

Yeah you can bring stuff to interact but it really depends on the educators. Some educators are nice and let you interact while others are mean and dont even let you use a mirror.

"There is nothing wrong with using a mirror. Many people use mirrors at SeaWorld to interact. Its allowed, and I bring a mirror to places I go to with cetaceans as well. The mirror doesnt effect training or anything, they are just having fun looking at themselves, its a great way to interact without signals which would be wrong."
Actually they aren't good because the trainers use them and wouldn't be as much as a reward. where do you hear this?!

I know but swc lets you interact but they just don't want mirrors because it's what the trainers use but go ahead and use the mirror if you want but just be carefull.
kassykalia 4 years ago 2
LOL, is that a Koosh ball? I love those. Hours of entertainment! Very, very cute! Don't feel bad about the mirror. I would have done the same thing. I've never seen a trainer use one for anything other than play.
Tucuxi3 4 years ago
well, first thing, you shouldn't use mirrors because you're not allowed to use what trainers use and you can't signal either a girl called tikilina is why they don't want you to interact. pm me for details there's more behind a 10 year old than you will think.
kassykalia 4 years ago 3
How exactly would a mirror effect any training or progress? Yes signaling is a no-no, I am well aware of that...but a mirror? Sorry I can't see your point.

But doesn't one of the SeaWorld's kick you out for interacting? I heard that from someone.
peepchick101 4 years ago
it depends on what educator is down there.
chicagocetacean 4 years ago
i don't see why they kick you out just for interacting with them. it's not like you're giving them signals right?
orcastars 4 years ago
They only yell at you if they catch you actually signaling one of the animals. There are several lil' girls out there who visit parks and signal the animals just for the fun of it. It disrupts traing, and SeaWorld staff has taken extra precaution.
