Scientists are discovering that orcas, among the most social and intelligent of marine animals, have unique family structures and behaviors, passed from one generation to the next. National Geographic photographer Brian Skerry traveled the globe to document orca pods-where he found that diving with these special creatures can lead to strange and wonderful situations.

Fun Fact 🐋 Orcas live in groups with their own distinctive cultures and dialects. Tell us something you learned from this video 👇

Orcas are adorable. They actually have the vocal cords to speak human languages. They are appex predators and amazing sea animals ❤️

Always amazes me that these people interacting with Orcas in the wild never get attacked. Not saying they're mindless killing machines (which they're clearly not) but I guess it just surprises me that an intelligent Apex predator has never been curious to see what we taste like haha. One of my favorite animals, they just fascinate me.

@sarachae7751 2 жыл бұрын

I, too, always wondered how so many humans never get attacked when in the water with Orcas! I think not only are these divers not going to get attacked by the Orcas, but they will be protected from predators like sharks, as the sharks will stay far far away from the Orcas!!! :-) :-) :-)

Do orcas have a sense of smell? Maybe we smell unappealing to them? 😂 I don't know but there has to be a reason. They probably somehow know they wouldn't like the taste of us.

@lastfirst5863 24 күн бұрын

Long memories and traditions, Orcas have witnessed us do crazy stuff in the ocean like whaling or blowing each other up in sea battles.

Amazing podcast. To the people complaining about the lack of visuals: there are no visuals! You want corresponding footage for everyone one of these stories?? Use your imagination! It's a free podcast. Enjoy it. It doesn't need visuals at all. There's plenty of Orca footage online.

The podcast is very interesting because it tells us what orcas are like, what their secret culture is like, and some similarities they have with humans. Some people believe that they are evil and attack but in reality they just play and are friendly, they are considered very intelligent animals developing new echolocation hunting techniques. For example, when they shared a meal with Brian Skerry.

This video is very interesting, because it allows us to learn about the secret culture of orcas and certain similarities they have with humans. For example, the orcas shared a meal with Brian Skerry; When comparing killer whales with human beings, it can be said that they have certain similarities and are considered highly intelligent animals that have even developed new hunting strategies.

The podcast es very interestin because it gives information about orcas, it also makes us think about the things we are doing and what harms these animals and the cultures we have . also, the orcas are not bad and they do not attack what they do is play with people since they are friendly

@damymejia Жыл бұрын

This podcas is very useful since it informs us about the behavior of the whales and tells us how we should act in the presence of one, the whales are very intelligent since when a human is in danger they protect him and push him to the surface
