so if we all did a search on YT we would find no trainers with flowing ponytails near the water?

Because the ensuing lawsuit is going to be expensive for Sea World.

IMO --- The animal was doing what comes naturally. It saw a ponytail in the water which probably looked like a fish. As a trainer, she had to know that the whales respond to signals. It's just like Sigfried & Roy with their tigers. One reason they are able to train the animals in the first place is by using visual cues. In this case, the cue was a ponytail.

I shall not condemn the orca until Frantzie characterizes it as a POS.
