Mother nature never fails to amaze me, all these creatures have so much more intelligence and feelings than we ever thought possible. The hunting of whales killing a porpoises and killer whales. It’s such a tragedy. I wonder why they even let us photograph them. Great video. thank you.
I don't think the killer whale is showing the seal as a sign of "you didn't stop us" but more as "look this is not one of you" in an attempt for the humpback whales to leave, they know that even if they have already succeeded in this hunt the others are still much larger and they will not be able to keep hunting safely until peace is achieved!
That's also my interpretation. It's just a way of showing them they are not after some calves of them but just regular seals. I can't imagine humpback whales would give a f about seals.
@@Asto508 There are more than a few videos of Humpbacks attempting to drive orcas away from seals. I doubt it is for protection of the seals and more likely the fact orcas hunt humpback calves for their tongues. Whales do have memories.
Except...OUR microplastics are embedded deep BENEATH their blubber. Us humans still "dominate" (more like destroy) the oceans and the majestic creatures within.
'take'..... I think he meant 'consume' there, maybe slip of the tongue. Some killer whale pods specialize in hunting whale calves (humpback whales included), others hunt sharks, or seals and so on. I wouldn't be surprised if a pod would go after a vulnerable adult whale if given the chance
Whales can definitely be so smart! We even know that sperm whales developed a strategy to protect the calves from orcas! Our crew even showed evidence that sperm whales also came up with a system to avoid whalers!
The more science and discovery is observed with Orca, the more we are inspired to understand them, their ingenious methods and behaviors. Their intelligence truly amazes us and connects humanity to fight for their survival.
That is the scary part. Orcas have been killing to eat kidneys only..not a natural order of things. Those humpbacks were making them stop for a reason. Orcas have been losing it out there for some reason. Also sinking boats in another part of the ocean. They know something we don't. That I do believe.
Maybe they didn't care if it was or wasn't and just wanted to show dominance either way. It WOULD be cool to know if they did know, but life in the wild is sometimes hard to watch. But the education is great
I’m not sure what’s more impressive, the whales themselves, or our innate desire to narrate and give meaning to what’s an everyday occurrence in nature.
It's not that it's an everyday occurrence, but that he was giving human meaning when he really has no clue what is going on. For all he knows the Killer Whale hunt somehow disrupted the Humpback feeding.
No it's not because lions and Hyenas struggle and fight over the "same" prey... Whereas Humpback whales merely try to fend off occasional killer whale attacks of their young offspring, and not vice versa etc. 🙂
Wow. The orcas could have attacked the poor humpbacks, as those bullies usually do... To think the humpbacks are still brave enough to help the seals- humpbacks are truly amazing- the best! 🙏 💕
You just have to appreciate what national geographic are doing. Just making contents of our dear pets are difficult, let alone the entire animal kingdom and the planet. I only dream is to be an wildlife and animal documentary creator myself. Thankyou NG
Nature is interesting. Saw a clip on how monkeys will steal lioness cubs in retaliation of lions killing and eating other monkeys. They climb up trees with the cubs and starve them. Spiteful animals lol.
Quite a sight to everyone except people who enjoy seals lol. Perspective. Just a killer parading around another still alive animal like a toy. You see what you see.
Absolutely jawdropping! Of course the orca are doing what they must to survive, and yet you can't help but feel empathy both for the humpbacks (and for the seal, of course). I've seen the videos of orca killing humpback calfs and fully-grown whales. And also basically tormenting and playing with prey only to leave it fatally wounded to drift to the bottom. They are much more like human in their seeming capacity for both playfulness and cruelty. Which probably also explains why they just swam straight towards to humpbacks to show off their catch. Is that anything other than taunting?
yes it could easily be something other than taunting. I do this with my rescue birds all the time, they freak out over towels, so I will use it on myself & show them it's for ME, I'm not using it to catch them, so as to calm them. Orcas could easily be doing it specifically to communicate to them that the hunt is not for their babies & so they can relax & back off on this day at least
humpback whales are like the one docile but huge guy in class who doesnt usually interfere between rowdy boys, but the rowdy boys know better than to aggravate the big guy 😁
🐳🐳 Amazing! I want us humans to also have more respect and empathy for ocean creatures. Please go plant-based and lay off seafood and meat! It's better and kinder all around for everyone involved. 🌱
@@pohanahawaii you should, you only need to look at yourself to see it. Meanwhile, I'll stick to my ethical, natural diet thanks, since it causes FAR less deaths & environmental destruction than your diet does!
Who started it? Did humpback whales begin disrupting killer whale hunts to the point the killer whales were like "we're going after your calf"? Chicken and the egg scenario. It's unfair to judge KW just for being carnivores.
If there's a bear holding my kid by its head I'm gonna make a judgement that sharing space with a bear is bad. No one's saying orcas are bad, but from the whales perspective I'm sure they don't want them around. 😊
Maybe you're interpreting a bit too much into it? I think if the whales were trying to organize anything and tease the orcas, there would be much more vocals and motion. Frans de Waal once said, if an animal looks relaxed, probably it's because it is relaxed. If what was happened was really what you say was happening, I imagine everybody involved would have been much more stressed
I think it was more of a curiosity than distraction. With the warming oceans and magnetic fields changing, we can't predict the outcomes of life on earth. Nothing has ever been stable, and nothing is ever truly known.
They used to be in Australia, when the continents split, Australia was left with no large predators - so the most ferocious predator mammal ever evolved from those herbivores, due to a lack of available food & mass starvation & disease in the overpopulating herbivores
@@jasont7814 meanwhile, seaweed & other algae's are choking our waterways, cause of not enough fish/marine animals to eat it all (due to overfishing & fertiliser run off boosting that plant growth doesn't help matters eitehr)
That’s a nice narrative these guys are weaving....but there’s no way to know this. It’s a hypothesis. It appeals to viewer sentiment by using human emotion and applying it to a STORY about wildlife. Could this be true? Sure. But take all this with a grain of salt.........
Why do I always feel so sad when animals are killed? As I get older, I've noticed I mourn the death of any living creature. I know it's the circle of life and all, shouldn't I not care?
Why can’t a killer whale just bite a humpback and run repeatedly until it bleeds to death? I mean, I’m bigger than a piranha, but I wouldn’t mess with one on his terms🤷🏼♂️
killer whales on the one side and sperm whales, grey whales and humpbacks on the other side seem to have a very intensive feud going.... all other whales seem to avoid confrontation...

Don't worry it's coming and national geographic was the one who started it
@angstvision7108 yes there's the comment I was waiting on
There are humans on Antarctica, and they’re quite smelly because there is little running water.
Gojira was right in writing a metal song about whales.
"Killer whales sometimes take humpback calves" So basically just the humpback whales being protective parents. 👀🐋🐋
But there is no calves?
It’s more like spite.
They actually take adults too
Their only problem is is that they're too slow. If they could swim a little faster then they probably could've saved that seal's life in time.
'take'..... I think he meant 'consume' there, maybe slip of the tongue.
Some killer whale pods specialize in hunting whale calves (humpback whales included), others hunt sharks, or seals and so on. I wouldn't be surprised if a pod would go after a vulnerable adult whale if given the chance

Animals teach us compassion, friendship, empathy and love
sometimes rage, sagavery, and more things thats in their nature.
And killer whales teach us a 'nyah nyah how ya like me now' brand of wit.
...and revenge
Have you ever seen a bear eat a prey while it is still alive, for hours while it suffers.
@@terrymckenzie8786 That's how birds of prey kill things, too. They eat them to death.
I love how they meet each other in the post game lobby to say "GG" to one another

This is so cool and interesting, I should have gone for Biology instead of Sysadmin....

Tell me why you would want to hunt and kill whales.
His mind is completely blown.
