I was fishing for salmon just a couple miles from Juneau . A half grown orca would take some of my fish off the hook with unbelievable precision without even getting hooked , a couple hrs later I dropped my fishing rod and reel in the water and that little joker dives down and gets it and puts it right in my hand wanting me to catch him more it was something I’m sure I’ll never see again in my lifetime as it was a one time trip . I always heard they were smart but now I truly understand that’s an understatement.

I think its part of some design. Built into most of us from birth. Children often are very drawn to various type of animals. A natural curiosity and wanting of companionship. We need to start encouraging more children and even adults to follow their natural urge to know about wildlife. Or keep and love certain pets 💜 All this will ultimately raise more awareness/compassion towards animals... and the planet too. Its already happening. I believe human evolution will be in the mind, and heart. A shift resulting in love. Understanding. I hope so anyways🌹 Oh and I will just add this here lol.. I have raised Goldfish since the 1980s. Even they are more complicated than most people realize. They actually make eye contact and "dance" for food lol. I sometimes hand feed them. With my finger I can make a gesture at 1 particular fish that I have food for him.. and he will come. The others won't. They somehow know what I'm doing. They all have different personalities as well. I've had fish who stayed near my hand no matter what I did. I could pick them up out the water. Move them around. They'd just keep swimming right back to me lol. But others are shy. Sketchy. It takes time to warm them up.

Pierre, you are always putting the welfare of the Orca first, and this is something that you really should be congratulated for. While others would go for sensationalist footage by trying to get as close as possible to or even touching the animal, your number 1 priority is to swim with Orca in a way that doesn’t disturb or interfere with these incredible animals. Well done and thank you!

I went this past June and they got so close to our boat. It was one of the best experiences of my life. And you don’t have to go to sea world or somewhere where they’re kept in bathtubs

I agree! Until I found out about how very cool Orcas actually are, I thought they were dangerous to humans. Actually, they are dangerous to many other animals, including sharks, but not to humans. It seems they prefer and stick to what they like to eat. They are so different from us, but they are just like us in many ways, so I don't fear them at all anymore. :-)

sorry but that's blindingly obvious. when you are in the forest do you approach the bear? no you don't. are you telling me that if you don't have experience you won't go for a hike in the forest? its the same thing with cetaceans. just don't approach wild animals, that does not mean you cannot go swimming in proximity of them it just means that you stay away and admire them from a far. it takes a beginner to get the experience not the other way around.people are so elitist when it comes to cetaceans and I do not get it.

They had an orca for a short while and when i saw this majestic animal in that small pool i decided i never wanted to go to a dolfinarium again and i started to read about dolphins and whales and i can not understand how "intelligent"people can treat these animals like we do. Maybe it is time that i start to find out what the best time is to do this and start saving up

Pierre E well considering the documented attacks of orcas in the wild on humans vs those of sharks, I’m pretty sure which one between the 2 would give me more anxiety. I understand an orca is huge, is carnivorous and all that, and it can be intimidating, but putting them on the same level of sharks is just crazy! I don’t understand why so many people comment on almost every video with an orca of those fears and always also mention sharks, what the hell?

I quite like the relationship Orcas and humans have. There is respect and curiosity. Yes, they are wild animals yet they showcase such intelligence and tact when encountering us.

And Sadly we have begun to damage this relationship with the stealing of their family for SeaWorlds and overfishing leaving them hungry and injuries from boat strikes. Now they are attacking boats in Iberian sea. :-( can we repair this relationship?

I feel the same way you do though. Which is why my heart breaks now that i can no longer say there have been no record of orca attacks on humans in the wild :,-(

Actually technically there have been no attacks on humans. Just the boats ....

Since my childhood I was always fascinated with Orcas, I did saw them for the first time at the age of 6 in a movie: Orca - The Killer Whale trailer (1977) . I did rewatch it so many times I couldn't remember. Most fascinating creature imo, so intelligent I feel just by watching them (never saw one directly) that you could start chatting with them and relating your daily problems haha.

This is awesome! I've never seen an orca in real life and we are still planning to go and see them. Seeing them already is a dream come true, but swimming with them would be heaven. I also have an orca tattoo behind my ear, because I've always loved them since I was a little girl and they just mean so much to me

Thank you. It happens that orcas come close to scubadivers. But the best is to snorkel with them.
