fr people are forgetting that this is a lecture open to the general public, majority of people there wont have a huge understanding of animal neurology and paleontology and evolutionary history

A couple of outliers extending beyond 20 years old does not have merit against the average premature death rate at seaworld. While I am a scientist with blood and body fluids, the principle with averaging data and leveraging bias still applies regardless. What a ridiculous comment.

They die in nets because man put them there. Their evolution precedes us by millions of years. They don't need us, if anything we are a hindrance and a burden.

many captive orcas do not reach the age of twenty and exceptions are not generalities you can do “cherry-picking”, it will not change the fact that captive orcas live less than wild orcas while in general a captive animal lives longer and I don't see where you're going with your last question? I found almost nothing about orcas caught in fishing string just two cases of orcas with fishing line wrapped around their necks making them suffocate and you may have very sophisticated communication without hands you can't do anything... although they are not 100% sure that the Paralimbic lobe is linked to emotions This remains the most probable hypothesis and even if it wasn't orcas remain the animals (including humans) with the largest insular cortex linked to emotions and consciousness

Thank you very much, yes they are.

Feel free to list the 12, Tarl.

So say what they are….?? Or did you just need some attention

How many whale fossils have you ever studied? Let me guess...

Don't worry about those other comments, I listed them it may not be twelve but its better than nothing. :)

Perhaps you don't understand the word Evolution. No worries.

clearly you are one of those... twice the size of the brain on how much the size of the body.

Yes that's true. They have no problem with their invirement

Even with humans, every child has the need to learn & adapt. It DOES NOT come naturally. At some point your brain stops growing, but the memory & trauma remains psychological or otherwise. We can't compare our brains to an Orca in human terms, for they have skills humans can never achieve either (vise-versa). But by "animalistic instincts" we are very much the same.

@@osiris_blanche I get your reply and I’m curious if you have watched Dr. Lori’s video “How I feel in love with cetacean brain” bc it explains what they know about their brains and level of intelligence and from what I can gather their intelligence is most likely higher than that of the average American and while they do have different skills than us a beings intelligence gives them advantage over the obstacles of learning something new. It’s not like once your brain stops growing that you stop being able to learn. People in there 70s at one time had never seen a cell phone but they learned how to work them and I’m Pretty sure when cell phones came out their brains had already stopped growing. Yes memories and traumas remain even long after they were done but as intelligent beings you can learn to cope and overcome them. Take for instance the children on the Dr. Phil show who had lived in a foster home much of their childhood where the parents made them sleep in cages with alarms and abused them physically and emotionally they where able with help to overcome this and be productive humans in society. They were not just taken out of that home and placed in a facility where they could never rejoin society. The point I am trying to make with these comments and the one I made on the video “what is a sanctuary “ by Dr.Lori is that I want these creatures to be freed from there tanks and I think a environment like the sanctuary wants to provide is ideal however I don’t agree with the sanctuary’s plan to house but not rehabilitate these intelligent creatures in the hope of returning as many as possible back to the place they belong the ocean. This sanctuary has no intentions from what I have gathered from their explanation of what a sanctuary is to ever rehabilitate of release any of the cetaceans that come to their sanctuary. If u have not yet watched the video “what is a sanctuary” or the video”animal intelligence and the search for life beyond earth” I suggest that you do bc I would love to know your thoughts on there plans for the cetaceans to not be rehabilitated bc a sanctuary is not a rehabilitation facility and the fact that all the cetaceans will remain in there sanctuary for the remainder of their lives while there search for more answers on their intellect and brain is explored by Doctors like Dr.Lori.

Dear "Just Me", Yes, we would be very happy to return captive whales to the wild, just as you would. Here are two relevant cases in point: First, check out our Whale Aid Russia series of posts at whalesanctuaryproject.org/whale-aid-russia/ when we worked closely with the Russian government and with Russian non-profits to return 97 orcas and beluga whales to the ocean. They had been captured illegally for sale to Chinese entertainment parks, but they had only been away from their ocean homes for a year and it was a workable situation. Then check out this post: whalesanctuaryproject.org/reintroducing-keiko-to-the-wild-the-free-willy-whale/ --- about what it took to return Keiko, the whale in the 1992 "Free Willy" movie, to the ocean. Keiko was lucky in that he had at least been BORN in the ocean. Even so, it took SIX YEARS before he was ready to swim free. Most whales at entertainment parks today were born there and have never seen the ocean. They have never seen a live fish and (like Keiko) wouldn't know what to do with it. There are two orcas at entertainment parks in the United States who were born in the ocean and and still have family who live in the region from where they were captured. In their cases, there is still a possibility of at least returning them to where they would be close to their families and might just possibly be able and willing to rejoin them. Every possible effort would be made to do that. But however intelligent they are (and they are indeed!), they are cultural beings, meaning that as youngsters, they learn everything they need to know from their mothers and aunts in order to live successfully in the ocean. And if they don't learn all of this as youngsters, it's not going to work. Imagine yourself being born in a closet, never seeing the outside world, and then suddenly, let's say in your mid-thirties, suddenly being taken out and dropped into a completely alien environment. Before you could learn enough to survive, you'd most likely starve, regardless of your intelligence. All in all, intelligence is not the only consideration when it comes to giving whales back their lives, however ideal that would be. Check out those two posts mentioned above and write to us at info@whalesanctuary.org and let us know what you think.

Your scenario of me trapped in closet for the 1st 30 years or so of my life and then being released into the unknown and starving to death no matter how intelligent is more than likely what could happen HOWEVER.... IF I WAS LET OUT OF THE CLOSET INTO THE HANDS OF EDUCATED AND KNOWLEDGEABLE DOCTORS ETC ETC AND INTRODUCED INTO MY NATURAL YET UNKNOWN TO ME HABITAT TO LIVE ALONG SIDE MY OWN KIND FOR SURE WITH HELP OF THE PROFESSIONALS AND TIME SPENT LEARNING AND LIVING WITH MY OWN I WOULD EVENTUALLY HAVE THE SKILLS NEEDED TO VENTURE OUT INTO MY REAL HOME THATS THE GOOD THING ABOUT HAVING THE KIND OF INTELLIGENCE THAT CETACEANS AND HUMANS HAVE WE CAN KNOW NOTHING ABOUT SOMETHING AND WITH SOME WILLINGNESS , SOME HELP FROM THOSE WITH KNOWLEDGE AND PRACTICE WE CAN RETAIN THE NEEDED INFORMATION AND ACTUALLY PUT IT TO USE I understand this may not be possible for all the cetaceans but it should be possible for some of them... UNFORTUNATELY DR.LORIE MAKES VERY CLEAR THAT A SANCTUARY IS NOT A REHABILITATION CENTER AND THAT THE ANIMALS ARE TO LIVE OUT THE REMAINDER OF THEIR LIVES IN THE SANCTUARY WITHOUT FORCED BREEDING AND UNNATURAL LIVING CONDITIONS. IM JUST A LITTLE CONFUSED BY HER STATEMENTS OF WHAT A SANCTUARY IS AND YOUR STATEMENT saying ALL EFFORTS TO RETURN CERTAIN ONES WOULD BE MADE I am not trying to be rude but you can’t explain a sanctuary as Dr.Lorie did in several videos I have watched so far and then say you will try to release them back into their true natural home.... now you can possibly say that about the ones who never actually go to the sanctuary but the ones who do according to Dr.Lorie in the ANIMAL INTELLIGENCE AND SEARCH FOR LIFE BEYOND EARTH VIDEO the cetaceans in your sanctuary will live the remainder of their lives there and your goal is to one day go out of business once all the cetaceans that where in parks and such have been relocated to sanctuary and have all died in the sanctuary also according to the Dr. this will not be anytime soon and it will be generations from now until this happens due to their long life span and the number still in captivity. Now I’m no Dr. but generations is a long time I’m assuming at least 100 years. SO IN SIMPLETON or LAYMAN WORDS SHE IS SAYING THAT IN A PERIOD OF AT LEAST 100 YEARS THOUSANDS OF CETACEANS COULD COME INTO THE SANCTUARY AND NOT 1 CETACEAN WILL BE REHABILITATED AND RELEASED BACK INTO THE ACTUAL OCEAN BECAUSE THE SANCTUARY IS NOT A REHABILITATION FACILITY AND THESE CETACEANS ONCE PLACED IN THE SANCTUARY ARE GIVEN THIS NATURAL HABITAT INCLOSURE TO LIVE OUT THE REST OF THEIR LIVES WITHOUT A CHANCE OF BEING REINTRODUCED INTO THE WILD. So like a stated earlier I am confused is she incorrect in her explanations or am I missing something...........

Thank you for your comment. Our understanding of the brains of orcas and other cetaceans is growing all the time, year by year. So keep checking for our latest webinars and posts where we include the latest information.

For humans to develop (and any other animal) everything else that existed was also needed, without everything else we would not have evolved. Just as we need everything else to even exist.

@Zamolxes77 In regards to the vocal cords and the opposite thumb.. Yes we are the most advanced species able to use tools... Brainpower on the other hand.. The orca has twice the neurons :D Has a seperate part in the brain dedicated to language and emotion. In that regard we are far behind and we know much less than we actually think we know. Sometimes i wonder how our arrogance evolved..... Planes came into existence by looking at the birds.. "Look deep into nature and you will understand everything better"

I think we only progressed so far because we have hands to build complicated tools and structures

@@yumyumlolly Opposite thumbs. But we are not the only mammels that use tools :). Thumbs aren't unique. Our vocal cords are though. But the orca has a few characteristics even we don't have and are truly unique in nature.

@@markus9415 yeah I know other animals use tools too like the Chimpanzees and such :). I was talking about Orcas not having hands so it's hard to use that as a measure for intelligence. Overall, I think they are a very intelligent, complexed and compassionate species.

Something happen ???? 🤷

Sarah Gulifardo hahahahah

😂😂😂👍👍

@@jaymarcase9737 you are an idiot and you know it

@@horse-lover68 very true.

The evil cult

No one abandoned or murdered him. Yes he wasnt a release candidate. There were lots of things done that hindered his chances of being wild again. No one knew where his family was, he was always being trained to do things instead of being reconditioned to be wild and taught to be independent. Some captive wild born whales have a chance at being rehabed and released, but not all of them.

He wasn't abandoned, please watch ruclips.net/video/OKBEuoaxL-U/видео.html . It shows the behind the scenes of Keikos release and how much preparation it took. But he was never ever abandoned

Totally screwed up Tilikum, as well. What we did to that poor whale is a tragedy and it’s no surprise he acted out in the way he did. It is surely OUR fault, not his.

Justin Vavala your 💯 % correct! How do you think a human would have behaved! They striped him and every other orcas basically to a mental hospital room with padded walls , no windows , starving them throwing dead fish down there throats in hot chemically treated water where they all get bad skin diseases, sunburns, hundreds of deadly mosquito bites ( which has killed them) they all have ulcers and a plethora of medication! Stuck in solitary confinement for there usual SHORT lives ! They usually last just a couple years before they smash their heads in and commit suicide! we know what happens to human prisoners! Imagine 40 years of torture! Hundreds of studies are done regarding their mortality rate........and by the way-orcas have been know to use tools! They have that 3rd section that we no little about! They don’t FU*#Up there environment and pollute and destroy mother earth they also are the only Apex predator that does not war with each other they are highly evolved way more so than humans who have been killing each other for thousands and thousands of years we can’t even get that straight also these animals have a better sense of family then humanity could ever wrap their head a round! I could go on forever!

@@my2cents980 Well said . .I'm curious . . .What tools have they used ?

read the descri^ption this is not the whale sanctuary this is the whale jail in russia.
