      @Ellie5621 That's not talking trash, its a plain fact. I use to live in CA and the Illegal situation is out of control, Between that and idiot politicians they are destroying a geographically amazing state. Parts of the state have become ruined due to it. The last time I was at a SoCal beach we found needles, broken glass and ridiculous amounts of trash leftover from worthless people that most likely have been brought to the state and remain because of the ridiculous lack of enforcement on illegals and unwillingness to help the US citizens out of homelessness.

      @Ellie5621. I am sorry but I was born here in California back in the early 60's and the state is being trashed as we comment, and there is a big difference between illegal immigration and catering to illegal immigration which the state is catering to illegal immigrants while ignoring their own citizens.

    This is beautiful and amazing footage. As to your question about why I think some greys stay so close to the coast, I've heard that it's more difficult for orcas to attack them if they're in more shallow water. The same source said that that's why greys are often preyed upon in Monterey, because they'll try to save time by cutting across the deep bay, rather than staying in the shallow water close to shore.

    • @TheMalibuArtist

      @@barbaragarza2417 No Orca in the northern pacific has ever done that. You are referring to a group of orcas in the the southern hemisphere, Argentina I believe, that have evolved that behavior on shore. It is not standard Orca behavior to grab seals on shore.

Some believe these animals swim those more treacherous passages to avoid humans. Love these wonderful creatures. Much respect for them ❤

    I live in Christchurch, NZ. Approximately 90 minutes drive away is a placed called Motunau Bay. I remember, as a nine year old seeing a humpback breaching just off shore. This was around 1971-2. Another hours drive up the road is Kaikoura. In the 1990's, whale watching became a multi-million dollar industry and changed the entire town. All manner of marine mammals are seen relatively close to shore as there's a deep trench, where Colossal squid live and die, and many species of cetacean spend time here.

    Man I love these vids. I’ve sat on the shoreline watching the sea life and always wanted a birds eye view. I saw a great white off Will Rodgers beach when I was a kid 1981, and everyone thought I was either lying or I was seeing waves or dolphins.
    But I knew the difference and what I was seeing even though great whites were very rare.
    I wonder if there are any areas near Malibu where mature sharks hang out.

    @Purpleswirls3 3 года назад +2

    Since whales generally travel in family groups and learn from parents, I figure it's kinda like a bunch of families who take the same cross country road trip, each family is likely to make different stops and detours based on experiences. Then the next generations take some or all of the same stops but might change some.

    Back in the 80's I would go out fishing around San Diego and I had a whale come up underneath my boat and started using it as a back scratcher. Scared the hell out of me. I mean the first thought that came to mind was the movie "Jaws." I don't know what type of whale it was but it took place during the summer months so I don't think it was a grey whale... In my mind the ocean is like looking at a desert with all the life hidden below and you just don't know what is going to pop up.

      I have heard there are cocas in the area also but never seen one and I use to go out on my boat a lot. Seen all kinds of whales, seals and dolphins and etc. Except a great white and orcas. I think you are right because I have heard that grey whales will hug the coast because the orcas hate shallow water and avoid attacking in shallow water.
