orcas are so intelligent, they work as a team to hunt and do their taxes.

Dumb, old, white woman commentary is always amusing in that band saw-scrotum accident sort of way. I especially appreciate the "I'll loudly repeat exactly what everyone can see for themselves" comments.

hey buddy, if you know about Christianity, you'd know that there is (or was) a hierarchy of creatures, which is part of the "Great Chain of Being".

And this all was created by God the Almighty? He must have a very sadistic character.

I also saw this on Animal Planet and it was very impressive. On AP they had an Orca expert analyzing the video telling us exactly what they were doing. It was in fact a strategically planned training exercise for a young Orca, notice how they catch the sea lion and then put it back on the ice so that the young one can do it. You can also see how all of the Orcas were pushing the ice out into the open water for more room to work with. These creatures are so fascinating, I was and still am in awe.

lol why don't they just make a free willy style backflip jump and break the ice?

lol, this was on CNN.

AMAZING FOOTAGE!! And it's so ridiculous to hear the people saying "oh no oh no" while the whale is doing what is natural for it to survive.... I bet these same people cram meat down their throats and use other animal byproducts without even thinking twice, but then one seal is going to die(which is hardly a snack for 5 Orcas) and they're so sad. Moral: Whales and Seals rule, humans are retarded and drool...

I resemble that remark! LOL Poor seal.... but it looks as though the Orcas were practicing 'Catch and Release'. It is the flow of nature. Predator eats the prey.. orcas eat seals, serals eat fish, fish eat smaller fish... it's all tragic and beautiful... but in the end.. all creatures are meat for the beast. The best that can be hoped for is a quick merciful dispatch.

That is so sad...yet so cool. Poor little disturbed seal.

Orcas are simply one of the most beautiful and awe inspiring species on the planet. Smart, social, deadly and gracious. Having seen one in captivity (performing tricks) almost made me cry. I'd love them to stick around so one day I can see them in their natural habitat.

First is try to break the ice, but these ones no, orcas use to hunt alone, these 4 orcas could break the ice easy, but is a training. If this first system dont work they do the "wave". When they put the head out, they are not stalking the seal, they are watching and calculating how to do the attack. This video is amazing, cos u dont only see the hunting, u can see how they train young, and leave the seal alive. If you want to know everything i can explain you more in a message. Bye ;)
By: AriArwenUndomiel. on 10 Nov 08, 06:08:58
Not it doesnt die, they didnt hurt the seal... i saw the video in animal planet and they explain the "whale wave" or "hunting wave". Is a system recorder just 12 times, and this is the most complete video. Experts believe that is just in this family of orcas. This was a training. You can search: whale wave here, theres a video of 2minutes, very short but they explain a little.

i saw it to was amazing!!!
By: Kizuna31. on 09 Nov 08, 02:59:34
I watched this on Animal Planet's Untamed and Uncut and they explain a lot try to catch it sometime!
By: puffherb. on 08 Nov 08, 07:35:57
Orcas are to the seas are humans are to the land, they are just such beautiful animals. Of course, they are not greedy and materialistic so the do have something on us! But I remember seeing or reading about 1 female Orca that attacked Great White Sharks from below at full speed, literally blowing the shark up, ate the liver and swam off. Wastefulness is not just a human characteristic haha

lol amagine being that seal....... "aww dammit im screwed"
By: jojodan43. on 31 Oct 08, 23:01:57
probably the smartest animal on earth after humans (the human part is argueble...) It is know that they even have different languages depending on the group they belong to.

Killer whales are known to eat a group of seals and leave at least one by letting it go.

Sooo who's the pimp?
By: Grummski. on 24 Oct 08, 01:14:59
fair effort by the seal to survive the first attack
