  • Well don't leave us hanging! Did the whales efforts pay off or did they finally give up? I'm dying to know who won this battle royal.

  • Ja, wurde sie.

    Das Jungtier das hier "geschult" wurde hat die Robbe bekommen. Wohl als Belohnung.

    Das war auch der Zweck der ganzen Aktion- drum "durfte" die Robbe ueberhaupt so lange leben.

    Man sieht sehr deutlich, dass einer immer das Komando zum Angriff bzw. Wellen erzeugen gibt. Die anderen sollen sich dann moeglichst synchron verhalten. Wenn man genauer kuckt, sieht man unter den anderen auch oft den kleineren Orca (Mitte).

    Ganz schoen clever...

  • Every time the seal fell off I was thinking, 'come on little dude'

  • @piirken Nah I did. He came buckets

  • @shisnoking

    I bet you didn't even give the horse you rode in on a courtesy reach around.

  • they're just messing with the seal to teach their young...

  • The Trials of Life! As I'm not unfamiliar with the intelligence of the Orca after commercial fishing for 18 years, I do enjoy the spectacull of this video, what most do not note is the fact that the Orca's obviously know, everytime they wash that wave over the ice it gets smaller, the seal would have been best suited to make a run for it in the middle of them just after the third wave, after that the seal was out of energy but one can still note the seal kept a low profile, a good feast ensued.

  • @binbashLinuxAhole Jap is a racial pejorative And orvas aren't actually whales.... +1 for effort though.

  • I wonder if they response the same thing to Jap fishermen...

  • Lmao how they washed the seal off, then throw it back to do again... smart asses...

  • Orcas are apex killers, gota love em.

  • @Recedebo not into the water but the wave the orcas generate so that it doesnt get knocked off the ice
