Do these hats say “Make Orcadia Great Again”?

It was Orcas, not Dolphins! Douglas Adams had it so close...

That’s even weirder than a bunny with a pancake on its head.

They are trying to get sea lions to come in close so they don't have to chase them.

When humans do it they call it "baiting" and have a tiny little fit.

When Killer Whales do it they call it "cute" and "whimsical" and "endearing".

Bunch of Speciesist.

All orcas are from the dolphin family 🐬 except, of course, for Orca Winfrey.

> in 1987 when a female orca in the Puget Sound area of the northeast Pacific was seen carrying a solitary dead fish on her nose.

Orca are mammals… so obviously this one is is wearing a fish because she want to feel like a gill.

Try the veal! I’ll be here all week.
