They respect them, they don't fear them! Their, many times, voluntary death, wants to warn people about where they are leading, away from God, the world!!!❤🙏
I don't believe for a minute that orcas are scared of anything they are the kings of the sea they may respect the pilot whales but scared of them? No I don't think so whatsoever this guy just wants to think that sorry dude you are wrong
@@Jim-ef9zlI totally agree with you
@@Jim-ef9zl I don't believe strandings are voluntary. If you look at most stranding incidents, you will see a long gently sloping beach with one or more headlands. When they come in close to shore, it's suspected they do not get an echo back from the beach and get confused. They then make the wrong choice.
@@FlakeyPM Thank you for your comment, but doesn΄t it surprise you that animals that suffer from this, have a specialty in leading other herds of animals? I am not reffering to cerebral or unintelligent. I am reffering to the Creators Empathy, which, yes, we humans have lost, but His small creations preserve it, and offer it to us to be taught... Its my opinion, you don΄t have to agree...
i once had the experience of snorkeling with a pod of pilot whales in mid ocean, We were on a dive boat between Florida and the Bahamas when the dive master announced we were surrounded by a pod of pilot whales He stopped the boat and offered us the opportunity join the whales .The water was flat calm and crystal clear. We jumped in and were surrounded on all sides with adults and babies alike. they took little notice of us and seemed content to keep milling about the dive boat. Although it was over 30 years ago, I can still close my eyes and replay those images in my mind today.
Wow! Thank you for sharing.
How do you walk around with such huge balls ?
@@SovietMOB No balls required, just swim fins and a snorkel . Incidentally, My wife was with me at the time. See, no balls required at all.
I would of passed out if i was in the sea with a whale or anything bigger than small fish
@@blaakox4754 They were harmless and acted if they did not even notice we were there . Truthfully, it was an experience of a lifetime. I had the good fortune to have a wife who shared the dive with me.
Never, never in my life have I heard of Pilot whales being a problem or threat to Orcas. You learn something new everyday. 😮

Les globicéphales sont massacrés par les japonais
the thing is Pilots sometimes chase Orcas away, when stopping, Orcas chase them and so on. It is mostly a huge Pilot group who chases a small group of Orcas. You can find Videos Orcas killing lonesome Pilot. Think it is something like Waterbuffalos chasing a lion pride...they are a threat but also prey. And in most regions Orcas and Pilots are not fighting for food, thats a false information too.
A bit more research and this is clearly a bit of over-hype. For example the prey list of both species is largely different. The pilot whales DO NOT 'give Orcas the shivers'.
They look like Dolphins who didn't watch their diet and drank too much beer.

Maybe headbutted some stuff too
….and never moved off campus 👀
I think they look similar to a beluga only darker color.
@@Hawken54
Exactly! But poor Belugas are prey to even polar bears. Only if they have similar abilities to the Pilot Whales. That would be nice for their species.
It should be noted; Pilot whales are the second loudest species on earth, with their vocal range reaching up to 240khz. This may have something to do with the orcas avoiding them. Loud sounds can disorient an orca. It's believed that a sperm whale, being able to achieve sounds of up to 270khz, can actually paralyze an orca if the sound wave hits them directly multiple times. This may be the case with Pilot whales, too.
Agree. The only reason Orcas stay away from sperm whales is because of the loud sound they make. Not because they are scared of them hunting them.
I remember a female diver trying to swim with sperm whale being victim to a ultrasound that hurt her very badly and she was lucky to survive. With some animals you just shouldn't get into the water.
Wow very good to know.Such mesml Thanks for sharing your knowledge of the whales 🤗
Thanks for sharing 😊 that was very knowledgeable. I had no clue that these whales were so loud. Very intelligent creatures. We take them for granted by capturing and slaughtering them or selling them to aquariums like SeaWorld. I understand if the whales Injured or in need of our assistance but to capture them for the parks pretending to use them as knowledge for the public when they leave all of these parts out when your dining with shamu. Just saying the public almost caused SeaWorld to go bankrupt after the attack from a killer whale. Made promises to drop there breeding program yet another orca got pregnant after this bill was signed and supposedly they mated through the gates since a male orcas private parts reach the length of 13 feet. But that was bs and people still support them. Smh. Hope I shared something knowledgeable as well. Save our whales and marine life!
240kHz is not a measure of their loudness, it is a frequency that we would call ultrasonic. maybe they can see your insides :D loudness is measured in decibels (dB) and anything above 100dB is painful to humans.
Pilot Whales are just mad that the Killer Whales got their own movie ;)
:)
Lmao good stuff
No but they got Pilot Bread Crackers for sailors 😂
Ahahah well the false killer whale should be mad for being named as such its like saying theyre fake killer whales made in china
Free Willy 😢
I was anchored with my sailboat on the BAJA side of the sea of Cortez near Loreto. I saw what looked like a pod of dolphins approaching us. I got my 2 grand kids up to see them. As they got closer, I realized that they looked too big. Hey! Those aren’t dolphins, they’re PILOT WHALES! Wow. My grand kids and I quickly jumped in my 12’ rigid inflatable dingy and took of with the pod. I had to be on a plane to keep up with them. They were doing 8-10 kts with no effort. We followed with them for about a quarter mile. Unlike dolphins that will often play with you when you do this, they completely ignored us. An amazing experience.
Very interesting video, you don’t hear much about Pilot Whales. Thanks. PS. The Sea of Cortez, Mexico is an amazing place for whale and dolphin experiences. We had a giant Blue Whale come right up to us while we were sailing along. He paralleled us for about half a mile so close that his pectoral fin rubbed the hull a little. He was at least 80 feet! Nearly twice the length of our 46’ sailboat. Yeah, another amazing Sea of Cortez experience. And I could go on. Capt Fred.

Yes, we do not hear much about Pilot Whales 🐋 🇦🇺 Enjoyed this immensely
If it makes you feel amazing....I will ignore you
So True.
I enjoyed your story so much. You are a great storyteller. What an experience for you and your grandchildren. Thank you for sharing it. One doesn’t hear much about Pilot whales, I will have a good look at them. 👏🇦🇺
So thats why Killer Whales are so cruel to regular dolphins. Getting revenge for getting their arses kicked by pilot whales!
"Afraid of bullying someone your size and intelligence?" Probably Pilot whales to orcas
I'd only swim in the ocean if an orca was guarding me.
When I was a teenager, we used to surf and sometimes these guys would be right next to us in the waves. It would freak me out but once you knew it wasn't sharks, you'd actually feel safer having them around.
A pity, perhaps. If Orcas and the like knew how vile WE were, they'd be attacking us to pull out OUR liver. After all, we are killing their world, as well as our own, and murder them anyway, as we do all animals, but Orcas are actually as stupid as all animals and don't KNOW we do this, so not clever anyway, but then, neither are we, cos we can't live without the planet we are killing every day. Ha! Losers!
Pilot whales are slaughtered annually as they pass through the Faroes Islands on their migratory route. The islanders corner them in a bay, stick hooks in their bodies to prevent them from escaping and kill them with machete blows. The bay turns red with blood. The islands belong to Denmark, which protects the massacre with its navy. The killing is done for fun as they do not need the meat as they live off industrial fishing. Pilot whales move in families, fathers, mothers, children and nephews.
I almost got head butted by a dolphin. I was setting up for a wave and it came within 6 inches. That feeling of a shark jumping at you is crazy. Luckily it was a dolphin and barely missed me
Imagine your headstone saying "Eaten By a Shark While Surfing".
Imagine being eaten by a shark
Back in the 1960s Pilot Whales were being trained by the US Navy to help in retrieving deep ocean . They were diving down to 3000 feet
Say whaaaat!?! I’ve never heard this before and I pride myself on my orca knowledge.. simply wow
In the early 1960s my family would vacation at Ormand Beach near Daytona. We saw pods of dolphins every day and it was a real treat to see pilot whales about every other day.😊Of my many trips to the beach since the 1980s I haven't seen a pilot whale since. All ocean mammals populations have been reduced, but I miss pilot whales the most
So because you haven't seen pilot whales at a particular beach you conclude that "all ocean mammals populations have been reduced". Glad you are not a scientist with that false logic. By the way pilot whales are actually terrible "pilots" and they beach themselves way more often than any other species.

I agree
...and just when I thought I knew it all.
Amazing mini documentary. Packed with information. Outstanding work.
Awesome! Thank you!
Yes, they are also called sea devils. They are super cute, despite their reputation and tenacity.
Indeed!
If I was a Mother Humped Back Whale or any other large whale Mother with a new calf, I would make sure to be close to these lil heros.
Pilot whale are the 'Bogans of the Sea' noisey, agressive and scrappy. I was in the water with the ones at Cheynes Beach WA a year ago. One of the first things I noticed was the scars of teethmarks on many of them. At first I thought it may have been close calls with Orcas but I was told Orcas leave whenever pilot whales are around. It suddenly clicked that the scars were the same spacing as the pilot whale's teeth. They fight all the time amongst themselves.
A hard thing was when you were assigned to a baby. It would keep moving around the survivors squealing looking for their moms. It was loud and begging. This sound will never leave me.
Most of the adults died the first night because volunteers were turned away and the few that were there, could only turn over and drag the little ones back to the water. I will NEVER AGAIN listen to "Stay away, you cannot help".
But by far the hardest was when the MEDIA LIED about the whales re-stranding and in fact the authorities pulled the survivors out of the water, one by one and shot them. I had to leave at that point, as did many others on that day.
If you look at most stranding incidents, you will see a long gently sloping beach with one or more headlands. When they come in close to shore, it's suspected they do not get an echo back from the beach and get confused. They then make the wrong choice.
Thank you, you are special. You work following your heart, not your ego. Be safe, and be blessed. Ps, don't stop writing, maybe we could get some of the others to wake up and start listening.
As these two species are two of the most intelligent at sea, cooperation, games may not be excluded between killer and pilot whales
Can they hybridize?
Nothing better than going deep when the stars are out.

Pilot whales also swims in large groups
You have two different types of orcas, one who eats fish and one who eats seals, dolphins, whales, sharks etc.
Both are called killer whales, but the one who eats seals, sharks, dolphines and whales will see a group of pilote whales as a buffet.
These are beautiful animals. I think they have been reclassified lately as threatened because of the regular massacre of them in Iceland. This is a crime against these gorgeous creatures. There is no real need to slaughter them en masse. It’s just an old fashioned tradition that should be banned 💔

They are wonderful creatures and what happens to them in places like the Faroe Islands is horrific beyond belief. It is, as you say, a crime.
@@peterashby-saracen3681 Yes, unbelievably sad. And many other beautiful animals like the Pangolin being slaughtered almost to extinction as well. And I won’t go on because I’m only just now lifting out of some despair with the weight of so many murdered children from the war 😢 The saying is “It’s darkest before the Dawn” and I’m feeling that we are on a precipice inbetween times.

Fascinating
Here in Tenerife there's a huge resident group of short finned pilot whales. I was working as a cameraman on a whale watching boat, amazing experience!!! You can see Tenerife's pods at 1:00 and at 4:51 with Teide volcano covered in snow. Beautiful.
Amazing
Yeah i went on a watch when i was about 10. Threw up on the boat but just after they appeared. Worth it.
Years ago I got to go to Catalina with my uncle Johnny Biby. He had a beautiful Grand Banks trawler named Cottora.
As we approached the island we were joined by a large group of Pilot Whales. We watched as they dove on munchies around the entrance to the harbor.
They are big dogs for sure.
These impressive whales are extremely capable predators, but Great White Sharks chill my spine a a lot more. The intelligence of these fellow mammals makes them feel more like family than foe.
Fun fact: Orcas will figure how to overcome pilot in five years😂🤣 those black and white bros have scientists and researchers within them😂😂
Pilot whale has bigger pod +100 individuals
The only reason the Orcas avoid the pilots is probably because of the size of the pod. Take 3 Orcas and 3 pilot whales and the Orcas would butcher them.
@@harshk9342
😂 yup it's like chimpanzee vs gorilla you only have 1 male silverback per group and you have 30 adult male chimpanzee per group. You have to really account that's gonna be group battle. I actually theorize that orcas only became apex because we hunted pilot whales close to extinction that it's rare to see a pod of pilot whales close to their maximum known pod size. In short if their population return to what it used to be we might actually see orcas not just dethroned but also pushed to fringes of ocean pilot whales do not inhabit.
I seen that footage of Lisa Costello and was horrified, relieved yet horrified. I wanted to be a marine biologist but saw an episode of Jacque Cousteau and they showed a huge whales eye just under the surface of the water and under the rubber boat and that freaked me out. Of course JAWS came out and sealed the deal. I gave up my dream of becoming a marine Biologist and now live in a land locked state and I own an African Cichlid fish store..
Also, careers in marine biology are scarce and competitive.
@@maryclark4882 Right-O and I was considering being a biologist, traveling to different Rain Forests but bugs like me, a lot and once I started studying I realized there are insects that lay their eggs IN you...I'll stick with 'skeeters and the occasional spider..
@@guysolis5843 what happens when they lay their eggs in you ?
They are incredibly giant
@@mikenuzzo3323 Look up Bot Fly's
I wonder if the Orcas leave, when Pilots are around.. Because Pilot Whales are one of the few creatures that can eat a baby Orca.
And, although much slower than orcas, pilots in numbers can catch young orcs.
Wow - so interesting. I haven't even really heard about Pilot whales before.

This is my first time hearing of these fascinating creatures.
In the Falkland Islands on saunders island theres a pilot whale graveyard . I think it was a stranding of 126 of them but the place is so remote and tge water so cold they couldn't be saved . My tour of duty despite being cold wet and windy most of the time had a few days of majestic beauty leaving images that will stick with me for life .
Once I was trying to catch fish in Florida in a pass/inlet and there was a huge school of mullet around. Bottle nosed dolphins showed up and herded the mullet together and attacked. Then something bigger showed up and took over. They must have been pilot whales or maybe false killer whales, I don't know which. But they were bigger than the dolphins by quite a bit, and dark. It was fascinating to see. I grew up fishin' in that area and spent a crazy amount of time around the bay and beaches of Sarasota. That's the only time I ever saw those animals, whatever they were.
Another time in Costa Rica I saw something very similar, dolphins feeding and something bigger and darker showed up. Both times they were a little too far away for a good look. In Costa Rica I was on the Pacific Coast, so it probably wasn't the same kind both times.

Growing up in Nova Scotia my Grandparents lived on the shores of St Margarets Bay and Pilot whales would hunt the Mackerel which we would fish for fun. The Pilot whale were amazing to watch as they flew out of the water doing flips. Whole schools of them, it was so cool.

Yes!!! What those people do is horrific, sadistic and primitive.
So, they ought to start breeding cows and pigs in small cages, just waiting to get big enough to go to slaughter house?
They look like Dolphins with the Downs.
I was fortunate to see pilot whales near Mo’orea Tahiti while swimming near humpback whales. The pilot whales would seem to keep the oceanic white tip sharks away which were also in the area.
How do you know
Fun fact pilot whales similar to orcas are actually husky n large dolphins whose size put them in the whale weight class
Passing through straight of Gibraltar, I saw some huge pilot whales they looked very impressive, much bigger than explacted

"Sworn Adversary"😂😂😂😂😂
I love Orcas ⛈️⛈️⛈️⛈️⛈️⛈️
You want them out there with you. Oh, yeah!
Orcas that eat sea mammals would probably not be as intimidated as those that primarily eat fish. I am not convinced that Orcas in general are scared of Pilot whales. A large group however could threaten a small pod of Orca. Not with being harmed so much as being harassed to the point of driving them away.
Pilot Whales drive off Orcas, and Sperm Whales (the individually most powerful apex predators) actually fuck them up (as well as many species of great whales such as Humpbacks).
Only humans with current technology generally lack something to worry about in terms of conflict with other species.
Right. The mammal eaters are quite ambush hunters. More aggressive and fearless .. they’re confusing smart with fear. Orca’ fear nothing but god. The name itself orcinus orca 'of the kingdom of the dead,' the champion of the deep 🌊🐳 the whale killer..we call killer whale now.
That melon is adorable
Still a mystery why Pilots and Minkes seem to beach themselves more often than other whales.

Maybe there're just more of them. Those are pretty big ?pods?
It’s the navy doing sonic underwater and it messes up their navigation. And possible gives them head trauma so they beach themselves.
Powerful military sonars are more dangerous to the spicies with more advanced natural sonars like pilot whales have
@@mandybrooks5789interesting theory
The pilot whale's mimicry could be an attempt to lure orcas into a trap.
I thought pilot whales just wore dark sunglasses & flew planes.
They flew the Enola Gay.

It’s a black beluga almost 😂

Great album, I am in wilderness again!!!
Directly from the Wikipedia information. Good videos add to a good look at these animals.
Pilot whales get stranded most of all whale species. What an ironic name.
Your government won't tell you. But is is the powerful sonar in submarines that fries the echo location organs in the brains of these whales.
@@Deontjie Wrong! Pilot whales are louder than sonar. If you look at most stranding incidents, you will see a long gently sloping beach with one or more headlands. When they come in close to shore, it's suspected they do not get an echo back from the beach and get confused. They then make the wrong choice.
Good to see Orcas worry too.

This is givin Jurassic world cross species genetics cuz I’ve never heard of these ever in life til just now lol.
Fact’s
The people of the Faroe Isles need to stop butchering these magnificent animals and be dragged into the 21st century.
Believe it or not, but you aren't the authority on what's correct or incorrect. No one "needs" to do anything just because YOU don't like it.
@@sprout5606 I’m not really on my own though in not liking it am I ? I happen to be civilised and can recognise cruel and barbaric practices when I see them. YOU obviously can’t!
@@celticlady4821 It doesn't matter whether you're alone in your opinion or not.
Barbaric and cruel why? Because the whales are considered smarter than a lowly cow or a sheep?
Humans are predators and we adapt to where we live. The Faroe Islands cannot grow very much in the form of crops nor is there much vegetation to graze cattle, so for a long time the Faroese have hunted whales for food. It's part of their history, culture and way of life and just because you "happen to be civilised" that in no way means their way of life ought to change.
I expected better from someone who considers themselves a "Celtic lady" as I'm sure you know what "civilisation" can lead to.
@@sprout5606 the Faroe Islands now have supermarkets, refrigerators and a modern, comfortable standard of living. They’re not like the Innuit who rely on eating whales or starve to death. You cannot possibly compare humane stun slaughter of cows with the methods used to literally butcher these sentient beings alive in front of their families. We do not run into fields plunging large hooks into living cows and drag them across the fields to die slowly in agony. I know what goes on there. The practice was actually dying out until it came to the attention of greenpeace in the 70s and 80s who alerted the rest of Europe to this and campaigned to stop it. But like petulant, stubborn children the Faroese doubled down and increased their torture of these animals. What a horrible group they are!
@celticlady4821 it's part of their culture.
Pilot Whales are basically a small orca or the middle cousin in the dolphin family. Orcas are still twice as big and in general are alot more powerful, but as we know dolphins work in packs
Excellent short documentary. Quite a few things I haven’t heard about Pilot Whales before.

You ever feel like you just kinda slid over to a new world line? I swear there's no way I've never heard of these before now, this can't be the same earth I was on before
Im surprised by a lot of this info. Ive heard of polot whales washing ashore and hearing it was killed by an orca. I can see how an individual could be targeted for food and vice versa if an entire pod came by a solo orca they could likely kill it. I could also see a large pilot pod being aggressive or territorial to an orca pod if there were babies in the pod or they were feeding. That's really interesting to hear an orca raising a pilot whale, theyre known to have string motherly instincts even after theyre young grow into maturity, but never heard that theyll raise another species
I've heard of pilot whales 🐋 but didn't realise they are a hindrance to the Mighty Orca.I guess you learn something new everyday.
Another eye opener for me i thought only orcas are the top predator of the ocean

There are a lot of top predators in the ocean. Giant hammerhead shark, sea leopard, polar bear, saltwater crocodile, many species of sharks and whales in adulthood, and so on.
Pilot whales, the "Cheetahs of the Deep Sea," are remarkable creatures that embody agility, intelligence, and social complexity. Their ability to hunt cooperatively and defend against larger predators like orcas underscores their prowess in the marine ecosystem.
Sound like the guy from NFS Hot Pursuit 2 (GameCube) when he talks about these Whales & how fast they go 😂
i’ve heard of pilot whales (species of dolphin), but that’s it. now i won’t forget them. thanks much. imagine orcas having a predator - Wow!! :) 🐬🐋

The claim that Pilot Whales are a predator on Orcas is absolute nonsense.
Orcas don't have predators, also transient orcas occasionally go after pilot whales
@@floseatyard8063Crocodiles and large sharks are capable of killing large cetaceans, including killer whales.
Pilot whales don’t get as much pub as the orca that’s for sure
Looks like a dolphin and a Beluga whale mated
There is no support for the idea that orcas are “afraid” of pilot whales. Pilot whales are smaller and not a physical threat in any way. Orcas occasionally eat them. However, pilot whales tend to stay together in large pods of 80-100 or more, and they are highly vocal. What is more likely is that they are so noisy that orcas have more trouble communicating with each other. Therefore, orcas are more likely annoyed by pilot whales than afraid of them. In any event, pilot whales are quite delicious.
No one eats orca. Rotten Greenland shark, called hákarl, is a traditional food in Iceland. In olden times of famine, Icelanders figured out how to eat it even though its flesh contained a potentially toxic amount of urea. By letting it rot, most of the urea leeches our. However, hákarl still has a distinctive ammonia taste and smell. I have had it many times. It is quite nauseating, but Brennivín, the Icelandic schnapps, does an excellent job of killing the offensive taste of the shark. Minke whale is often eaten in Iceland and Norway. It is quite good. It is both gamy and briny. I have never eaten beluga whale, but I am told that its muktuk is quite delicious and helps keep you warm through an arctic winter. The døglingur (bottle nose whale) is sometimes eaten on the island of Suðuroy in the Faroe Islands, but only after it beaches itself. I have never tasted it, myself, but my Faroese friends say it is not as tasty as grínd (pilot whale).
Why should anyone believe you?
@@JJG86 common sense? Orcas can be over 30 feet, vastly intelligent and they dont fear anything other than maybe the sperm whale due to its sonic clicks that can cook other sea life, it makes sense that they would be wary of a lot of noise. Orcas have been known to hunt sharks just as big as any pilot whale
@@cattycats4 You didn’t answer the question, what is his qualifications/expertise on this topic. Are you a Marine Biologist?
@@JJG86 do you think the maker of the video is? why do you ask for qualifications when you could instead find qualified persons and ask them and then back up your skepticism with the knowledge or find out that it was correct. Anyway qualifications just mean they have the opportunity to support claims with evidence/research that normal people might not have access to , stating qualifications does nothing to prove anything, you must use your common sense and find the reasons based on fact. Facts here are the use of sound by both pilot whales and sperm whales, and particularly the latter it has profound effect on other sea life, also fact is that orcas hunt great white sharks and are not afraid of them in general, common sense would suggest that if orcas are afraid of anything it is probably the use of sound that the great white sharks do not use. sonic attacks by marine life is a fascinating topic and far more powerful that I wouldve imagined before I found out about it. :-) have a nice day
Wow another amazing video 👍😎
Glad you enjoyed it
Wow you learn something new everyday 😁😄
Tigers get chased by wild dogs...does this make a wild dog an apex predator or feared by Tigers? Of course not, just a very well exucuted strategy by the dogs. The Tiger weighs the risk to reward and usually makes the decision to move on. I would hypthosize the same thing is going on here.
One of the most terrifying animal attack videos, I ever saw, was a woman who was snorkeling, got grabbed on the thigh by a pilot whale, and dragged deep into the ocean. I saw it when I was like 12 and it terrified me. I’m 40 now and it’s still scary.
BS
It’s a real video. Don’t call out something as BS unless you’re actually certain - it makes you look silly.
@@kjbenham6625 The film is real, I was commenting more about the overheated narration, which I suspect is a robo-narrator, given its quirky pronunciation of unusual words. The video is OK, but notice that it shows none of the dramatic behavior it describes. That is what I meant by BS. There are lots of You-Tube videos with terrible narrations or dramatic music.

I remember that report of the pilot whale dragging the woman down. The woman was fined by CA authorities 10,000 dollars for harassing sea life. Camera man too, if I recall correctly.
If this all be true then great white sharks can be on their menu also.

I live on the coast of Southern California and we frequently see small pods of short-finned pilot whales swimming just beyond the surf line. Unlike porpoise (dolphins), they seem to be in our area all-year round.
This is the first time in my life that I heard of pilot whales being a nemesis to orcas. Usually I here about adult male sperm whales intimidating orcas.
FANTASTIC ANIMALS !!!

Interesting! We were in Nova Scotia in 2019 and we took a whale watching tour in a Zodiac. There had been Orca in the area the previous two days and we were out in search of them and all the tour boats were in contact with one another on their radios and no one could find the Orcas but one of the guides located a large pod of Pilot Whales, so now I am wondering if that is why the Orcas were gone. Never would have thought that would be an issue.
I would have to see a full documentary on orcas being afraid of pilots to believe this video shows nothing of that being the case
Yes, I agree, I think the evidence is pretty thin that Pilot whales would scare off a pod of Orcas. It makes for more clicks and that’s money to the content creators.
did u watch the start of the video? you can even google the incident.
@@teeanahera8949they do but it's only fish eaters that don't know how to hunt and are less violent, transients eat pilot whales every now and then, and while it isn't documented orcas have been found with pilot whale in their stomach, so yeah pilot whales can't really fight off a pod of orcas that is actually going to fight and not run away out of frustration
@@floseatyard8063Resident killer whales can be no less violent if they feel threatened by their clan. Please note that in captivity, the most brutal attacks on humans were committed by resident killer whales.
@@ibrahimsultanov7355 that's because residents are the types of orca captured.. also residents can be violent but they don't know how to properly hunt mammals, they aren't mammal hunters, they eat fish and squid.
Even Chechens are afraid of them .
Respect for the animals
Surely you can't be serious?
I am and don't call me Shirley. 👨✈️
Every where I've read about Orcas they report Orcas have no predators... :O
He didn't say pilots kill orcas, just harass them.

They mimic orcas ? Sounds like Pilots be posers.
Turns out Pilot whales are NOT related to flying fish . 🐠🐳
😂
Pilot whales travel in larger groups than Orcas which is why Orcas may avoid them. Their slaughter is horrific.
When a weight is given as 2500 kg you really don't need to quote 5511 lbs. It's rounded already, 5500 would be fine. Interesting video though.
Great use of adjectives boss!
Great video. Never heard of these truly interesting. Also I really enjoy The narrator's Voice

Super interesting. Thank you.
Costellos incident though was caused by her invading the private space of the pod, even petting them. That's what scientists say that have decades of experience with the behaviour of several types of dolphins (including orcas and sperm whales).
A bit more into detail:
Given that these animals have sonar with which they can even have a picture of the inner workings of a body, a very high sense for emotions aswell (highly social beings) and also are known to have several layers/different forms of privacy space they want around them/the pod (also depending on what they are doing in the moment), the one that dragged her down surely wanted to teach her a lesson in respect of privacy, not even making her bleed by grabbing her leg and letting her go catch air at the very last second.
