And how do you know they feel tortured? You did a Vulcan mind meld and they told you?
No there is no "Vulcan" or people from Vulcan. That was a TV show.
Orca's in captivity, all of them, end up with a flailed top fin. Like Tilicum which is featured in the Doc "Black Fish". Many other disturbing behaviors have been seen in captive Orca's too, just try renting and watching the movie.
http://blackfishmovie.com/ By "disturbing behaviors" I mean like killing their trainers, trying to kill their trainers, attacking other Orca's in the bath tub....ect Heck you can tell when your dog is emotionally a mess imagine how easy it must be with such an intelligent animal as an Orca?
An Orca is a wild animal ; It has no comparison with a domesticated pet. In the wild they have never attacked a human but in captivity they have attacked humans nearly two dozen times. A characterization of the Orca's intelligence
researchers describe incidents in which wild killer whales playfully tease humans by repeatedly moving objects the humans are trying to reach, or suddenly start to toss around a chunk of ice after a human throws a snowball.
The killer whale's use of dialects and the passing of other learned behaviors from generation to generation have been described as a form of animal culture.
"The complex and stable vocal and behavioral cultures of sympatric groups of killer whales (Orcinus orca) appear to have no parallel outside humans and represent an independent evolution of cultural faculties."
I never used the word "sexy" either. This thread is starting to reach the point of no return between the Bully and the Vulcan who thinks is bird dog is the same kind of animal as a wild 11,000 lb Orca. I myself believe people are "aware" of them even if they dont pay $30 a pop to watch them jump in a bath tub. Its just the circus act they want to see, just like with the croc guy "ex", the snake guy, the ex-Bear guy, the Lion girl, the shark guy....All of them seeking fame and $$$ while hiding behind conservation.
