Orca “attacks”

[SerenityNigh]

Saw a documentary on them and they were flipping seals out of the water with their tail fins and hurling them 20-40m just for the lols the absolute lunatics.
Poor seals were getting smashed to pieces.

Isn't it true that there's not a single recorded attack on humans in history by Orcas?

If they suddenly decide that actually, we look pretty tasty, then we're screwed tbh

Correct, there is no record of a human ever being killed by an Orca.

Orcas are also the only natural predator of the Great white shark, so that's good too

Correct, there is no record of a human ever being killed by an Orca.*

*in the wild.

Been a few attacks in captivity. But there’s plenty of evidence to suggest that keeping them in captivity and separating them from family members causes them severe mental trauma that can lead to these attacks.

Blackfish is a good (but heartbreaking) docu-film about this if you haven’t seen it.

I’m terrified of the sea and being in open water at the best of times. I know they wouldn’t hurt you but imagine one of them swimming up next to you, I’d swear allegiance to my new black and white overlord quicker then you could say Free Willy
