Not all orca whales attack and eat other big animals. There are groups that are just fish eaters.
Sometimes size doesn't matter
Humpback coming like a big tank.
Killer whales: well that aside,we still goin to murder that baby
Ok the crying sound kills me
kil the damm thing
Orcas are jerks to kill a baby, they kill everything but are smart enough to not kill humans, they know how the food chain works. Humans kill everything on land and sea, we are the biggest jerks!
she said sadly the humpbacks couldnt save the baby grey whale. if your are a naturalist you understand how nature works. the predators feed on the prey. they must eat in order to survive. whether it seems cruel to us or not thats how it has been and how it will be. the killer whales must eat in order to survive. i have heard that there has never been a recorded incident of a killer whale attacking a human in the wild. in fact i have watched videos of humans and orcas swimming together in the ocean, with the orcas appearing playful with the people.
people taking solace in orca's feeding of seals after watching the later kill off penguins.
Now what..End of journey
I really don’t like orcas
Sometimes when you see Orcas you just want to end them.
So many questions.
God's Heroes :Blue Whale ❤️
this wold would be better of void of orcas,,
Next episode it's "sadly the Orcas starved, they couldn't hunt down the lifesaving prey, a grey whale calf"
The humpback whales tryed their best 😔
Killer whales, bullies of the sea. I hate those damned bullies. Personally, I would support any killing of them. And I don't care if Orcas in captivity live shorter lives. Good for nothing bullies!
Humpback whales made me a fan today
i was so sad when they killed the baby
Humpback whales can go more deeper than sperm whales!-(35,000 ft)
I TRULY APPRECIATE NATURE AND LOVE IT ITS BEAUTIFUL BUT THE BABY BROKE MY HEART TRULY MY DREAM IS TO GO TO NEW ZEALAND AND SEE ALL THESE AMAZING CREATURES
Don’t get why you show sharks eating sea lions , baby seals. You show Orcas eating seals, but you didn’t show Orcas eating that whale 👎🏽
What a piece of sh*t of an animal the killer whale is. JEEZ.
This is like 2 local tough guys trying to stop a radical gang from bullying kid in their neighborhood.
This is so depressing.
They're called Killer Whales for a reason. They kill whales
Very sad, very sad!
Humpback whales are the real Police!
Humpback Whales are, and ever shall be, my favourite animal
I love Killer Whales! The ocean's ultimate Apex predator.
every one in the comment section be like
aw baby whale died IM SO SAD NOW
maybe the most biased commentator ever 💁🏾♀️
Okay but why was the way the killer whales breached at 0:02 so badass
F* you all for putting music over the a death- of a child no less. Do you do that to murders caught in tape? This is entertaining to you??? Educational, fine, but you put Hollywood music over it, as if it's exciting. Have some respect for life on this planet, and death.
dam killer whales can extinct many whale species of how efficient they are at killing
Old footage but still utterly devastating and beautiful. Wow. 🙏🏾
To me is this, even if a humpback whale tries to intervene with the nature to save a baby’s life, then why the fock humans don’t, when they can save life of a baby. Oh please don’t say stupid things like messing with the nature etc.. You already have raped the nature, also you are not saving every and all the babies, only the one you already have become part of by being there. 🤬
For some reason the Humpback whales Blow hole noise sounds like Noo but in a Like idk Thing
The dramatic music and the orcas moving in perfect formation at the beginning…
😢😫
Oh god, mother nature is so cruel, im heartbroken 😫💔
Orcas are the cancer of the ocean
Some of these videos make your day and some of them ruin it. It’s really an emotional box of chocolates around here.
سبحان الله وبحمده عدد خلقه ورضا نفسه وزنة عرشه ومداد كلماته على كل شيء قدير اللهم صل وسلم على نبينا محمد وعلى آله وصحبه أجمعين وسلم تسليما كثيرا إلى يوم الدين
This is awful
That's a much better kill than people….
kinda rude of those orcas ngl :
Orcas!
Ballenas jorobadas contra orcas.
These are the whales people pay to see swimming with humans and performing tricks.😬
All hail the heroic humpback whale.🐋
What could they have done to save the baby whale?
You can understand what is happening by hearing the baby calf screaming and wonder why the mother failed to protect her baby.There were distress signals released from the blow holes too.Where was the marine watch patrol?
When me an my friends get sync while emoting in fortnite: 0:07
lol lez go
There have been numerous recorded instances of whales attacking orcas who are hunting other species has been, and it's thought that they are not actually trying to save the other species so much, but that they instinctively respond to orcas acting aggressive because they are known to also attack humpback calfs, and it's in the whales best interest to make the orca leave the area.
Humpback gotcha back! Sadly can't save them all…
Seems like a few whales chilling together and animal “experts” created an exciting thriller.
Mama whale was traveling with baby whale when the evil black whales attack to kidnap the baby, bystanders who are almost drunk try their best to save the day but fail.
Part 2 Papa whale comes for revenge.
I hate killer whale
I love humpback whale even more now :")
Stop killing orcas JUST STOP IT NOW the cops will arrest YOU and you go to JAIL DUMMYS And support Orcas now…. Pls :<
wow! the unsung hero of the sea!
There were at least 16 humpback whales that showed up to harass the orcas that day.
Animal altruism and unity at its best by those Humpbacks coming to help that poor mother and calf. Sadly, the Orcas won the battle and killed the calf, but still extra props to those Humpbacks for their valiant effort.
this shit made me so sad
Humpback whale are the hero of the sea
Maybe Humpback whales see themselves as the "humans" of the ocean… We have decided who is the predator (the lion, the fox, the wolf..) and who is prey. Why cant a whale see themselves as protector against the "wolves"?
Yet in the end, the grey mother whale continued her journey to the north .. Alone. 💔
Size and strength against intelligent and overwhelming determination to kill, eat and survive. This how nature Is brutal but this has been happening for hundreds of millions of years before humans dominate this world.
The moment the cop of the oceans emerges for the killer
Buffalos vs lions? Pff
Humpback whales vs Orcas? That sounds good
Fake AF.
False news the mob boss whale sent the goons for an unpaid crack debt so they collected his whale ass and now his whole anal cavity is leaking the whole gangs sperm
Fun fact: Humpback whales are known for defending smaller animals from orcas, even going as far as forming mob-like pods to drive away orcas.
Time to invent orca sushi
The reason humpback whales actually protect other animals is because orcas usually try to attack them, and on some humpback whales have scars on their tail, and do not want this terrible experience to be casted on another animal, despite the species.
what amazing creatures
Now if we can only sink all those illegal fishing boats and their men and let the killer whales have them.
Your all sensitive people who don't understand nature. Clueless onlookers with opinions. These orcas got their meal when you left. Now go cry.
Awesome footage! Where was this filmed?
Humpback whales are the "Heroes" of the sea
The only man who'd trade shades with Orca
And orca won't mess with them alone either
If Humpback's were just a bit more Aggressive
They'd pretty much wipe out Orcas from seaS
That's sad
orc: terrorizes the ocean
whale: ive just about mc fuckin had it with this lil shit
i hope the killer whales die from some animal in that oceon
Why is this so epic
F
Humpback whales are amazing creatures. I've seen them save seals, humans, and now another whale! Amazing, beautiful creatures. They attempted to put themselves between the killer whale's and the baby; but unfortunately it was a bit late. They're just beautiful creatures.
Orcas are not killer whales, but whale killers because that is their job in the marine ecosystem. I would suggest that human should change the inhumane way untold millions of fish are left to die by suffocation when taken from the water (which has the same effect on fish as death by drowning). The humane killing of any fish or animal is quick and painless, not slow and agonizing.
Whales are one of the only creatures that show altruism – watching all the videos on it is amazing.
Tank moves in
Good. Baleen whales are pure evil, they eat their prey alive.
The orcas should kill them all.
Maybe there has been a site that’s not on YouTube that a humpback whale saved a tiger shark from orcas
سبحان الله العلي العظيم .على هذا الخلق العجيب
So these humans rushed over there to just watch. Why even go? For footage. For money. We can chose to assist others. We don't have to let nature be. These humpbacks save other species than their own including our own species. It's called Altruism. These people just watched and did nothing. Useless viewers
No 2
Hm,…..I think I found a new role for the USS Alabama,
I'm beginning to dislike orcas. It was said that orcas are the disrespect animals on the planet
Humpback whales are literally the Avengers of the seas
as hard as it is to watch animals hurt and kill another species, i prefer to accept that fact rather than keep hearing of how humans hunt them for some meaningless luxury
