Killed by a Killer whale. I would feign shock, but why bother.

What happens when one forgets that wild animals are wild animals; apparently, an affliction increasingly common in our modern world.

You are kidding me, right?
Very sad story otherwise. My daughter loves the Shamu show down in SeaWorld San Antonio.

After seeing a story on a coordinated attack by a pack of Killer Whales on a Mother Grey Whale and her baby. (she managed to get her baby to safety) I don’t like Killer Whales. BAD whales.

The whale was probably not trying to kill her, but they are wild animals. Carnivores to boot.
To: b4its2late
Did they know immediately....or did they think it was part of the show?

I suppose there is a reason they are known as “Killer” whales.
I heard PETA is now demanding they be called “Sea Pitbulls”.
To: OldDeckHand
So THAT’S why they call them Killer Whales???????
To: FortWorthPatriot
Noticed that too. Must have been public schooling, lol. Horrible story, not sure Im going to share with my kids. Too horrible

harpoons would work!
Has anyone ever seen killer whales kill baby seals? I just do not know why anyone would be near such a powerful animal.
