This is why Orca’s are attacking boats. Please leave the whales alone 😢
So if we push him in the water and the orcas eat him. Then they will attack boats all the time.
Exactly
@@richardschiller7803what? No 😅
@@richardschiller7803Illogical.
That kid was pretty lucky that the Orcas did not sink that boat because they have started to do that. Those animals are starting to fight back. I'm with the orcas for sure.
Orcas may be smart, but some of the boats they’re attacking are total innocents.
Imagine someone stalking your family. He needs a nice looking amount of fine and a ban to boat for a few years.
I have never chased a whale, they normally just pop up beside you. Shut down, they look at you, you look at them and once they go away you can carry on, possibly with some neat pictures.
Should be enhanced in the boater safety and stiff fines. Sick of tourists and vloggers encroaching on and disrespecting wildlife for a fkn photo op
Kudos to the photographer for recording this stupidity that endangers these beautiful creatures.🌺
So many disrespectful human intruding on wildlife , basic stupidity .
Get out of THEIR house 🌊!!!
Why?
Humans need travel througth the sea
Push him over, orca lunch, baby is hungry
Put him in jail
And they wondering why theyre attacking boats all over the world now
This should be an automatic arrest and put them in prison.
A whale watching company has no business messing with these whales either
That probably why the orcas attack the boats to protect their families 👍👍👍👍
Pig ignorance seems to run wild.
Pig? Big? Oink? 🐷🐽
identify and FINE
Why blur his face? He's a criminal! Let's see who it is and let the public ID him!
@@caileigh920 he’s an attention seeking ho and p unk.
This generation of constantly putting themselves or other living things at risk for self he needs natural selection to start kicking in immediately. He needed sunk.
They should blur the faces so they do not get their 5 minutes of fame.
Exactly!!!!
Wrong. It's his word versus the boaters word. The guy only has still frames and proves none of what the photographer said
Take the boat sent him to jail
Fine his butt
That's really really pathetic considering they've been around me the jump around me they don't give a f*** about my boat and when they're ready they peel off I don't shut down my main I just keep traveling my six knots I'm not shutting down im going to keep fishing....want me to shut down you can pay my way home
Why are humans being so stupid they could have squish u
Hes lucky ORCAS RESPECT HUMANS & have no aggression like bears & usual predator parents.
Life is hard.......It's harder when you're stupid !!!
Too bad he didn’t get one on the line that wldv been a whale of a catch!
Canada has bigger problems to worry about.
If you don't prioritize protecting nature then nature will kick your ass and remind you it's #1
My Thoughts exactly!! 😅
Stay Away From All Wildlife!!
Ya Don't!🤗 YOU GET WHAT YOU DESERVE!!!
Just let him keep doing it, and the whales will take care of it
Hard to say what the guy was doing legitimately fishing or not, but of imbput there fishing in a boat like that and an Orcca comes my way...no shutting the engines down...that's basically giving up every means of controlling your situation these big beauties have been known to attack boats. You can bet I am promptly giving it throttle and getting way the hell away if I can. Definitely not posing for selfies...what a dolt.
Then you may end up hurt or dead. Do you think that tiny boat can get away from those Orcas? Do you think keeping the boat running is going to scare them? It is going to make them more nervous and defensive and more likely could attack you. Listen to Marine Biologists. They know.
Orcas aren't whales.. news segment needs to be fact checked.
Dolphins, right?
Dolphins and whales are closely related. Orcas were given the name ‘killer whale’ by ancient sailors’ observations of groups of orcas hunting and preying on larger whale species. They called orcas ballena asesina, or ‘whale killer’ - a term that was eventually flipped around to the easier ‘killer whale’. Their Latin name, Orcinus orca, also reflects this observation of orcas feeding on large whales. Orcinus translates to ‘of the kingdom of the dead,’ and orca refers to a kind of whale. We know that orcas are top predators, yes, but not the vicious ‘whale killers’ that the ancient mariners thought them to be. If you could give orcas another name, what would you call them?
😂aaaaßaaa😂
Then cancel the whale watching tours!!!! There should be no exception. This is just so you have to pay to go near whales. BC is always trying to cash in for stuff that is free like looking at mountains. I work in tourism whistler.
The tours do not get that close. Try again
@@jumbome7420 the video said they were allowed to.
@enterwildcat with special permission and with training and education. I have been on several tours and they have all been very respectful
Sad😢
Yes they do. Our tour boat go within 20 yards of a pod.
I can't imagine the whole 400m part. Unless you notice them breaching it would be hard to see them. I will fight tooth and nail if I get nailed because I was too close before I saw it. Can't be going on a sailing trip only to get slammed with a massive fine and jail time because the whales paid a visit in the middle of the night. Hopefully, officers will consider "intent" when enforcing laws
In this case the boater was obviously making a show of continuously getting close to the whales and disturbing them.
😅wuw
One day to get the stuff in my ippad and hot tub and hot 🥵 for the rest and then I'll be home in like an hour and I will be home by then and then I'll get back to mine in a minute if you
Last I checked, we’re the Apex predator,
As a creature of nature I'll interact with other nature as I see fit.
There is a whole industry that chases these guys each and every day. One more isnt news worthy.
Newsworthy for those willing to learn and transcend ignorance.
Wow this is what's making news these days.
What would you rather see… shootings, murders, etc? 🙄
@@jlywi7171 Real news that matters
@@Rexster2022nature always matters. How stupid can you get?
@@Rexster2022It does “matter”. It’s all matter. Real news is something that teaches and transcends ignorance. The report certainly does that for those willing to learn or those open to checking their egos.
Innocent until proven guilty. We have not heard his side of the story.
No we just saw it,posing for pictures of himself with the orca
Trust me, his side of the story is worse than what you see
Are u him?
Now I see who voted Trudeau
@@gravano2I voted Trudeau and I respect whales and believe this story. Try again
Bible has incredible scientific accuracy like round Earth and jet streams and the hydrologic cycle and much more.
BAHAHA! Thanks for the laugh!
Excuse me but what does any of that have to do with this story?
@@DougWolfe Because everything on Earth has to do with the Bible and our Lord and Savior!
@@fnoce5948 ....it actually has to do with evolution, and super hero comics.
Any chance you can get huh 😂
Why have things with the animals and insects become a concern in these times of the LGBTQ? 😂
Becuse the LGBTQRSTUV... don't matter!
You forgot the 2+ .
cant tell if this is a joke or not
What?
@@Selkie7 Every thing is of spirit
The Whales can move waaaay faster than that little boat, who got too close to who ?!
And why should they move? They are protecting a calf that could not keep up with them, perhaps? When you know nothing about a subject, I'd recommend you leave it alone, much like that ignoramus in his boat.
He drove right into them. Sheesh yes it must be the Orcas
The guy in his boat got to close to the Wales and its not aloud.
Boats slice them with blades all the time. This is animal abuse. Plus it's the whales' home, not ours 🐋✊️
@@junecoulthard8942 That's right. The Prince & Princess of Wales don't like that, especially when it's not aloud. They hate whispering.
Waw Waw Waw, go hug a tree
Catch the whales for food. Why are we not catching them for Fish and Chips. Not sure why the guy is upset.
Goof !!
Boohoo someone had a boat near Shamu. The horror!
Thick ego.
@@tinaheald Thin skin.
