Idiots everywhere!
If someone can’t try and ride a whale then what are we really doing here?
Is he trying to make them hostile? They are the wolves of the sea
And then we complained cause the orcas try to sink the small boats and yachts near them
See what you can do with an under developed prefrontal cortex? And this pathetic display of being human isn't just for men.
They are called killer whales for a reason. I was hoping the orca mom would show him a thing or two.
I cant stand entitled ppl ?
???????????????????????????????????????????????????????????
Idiots! All of them. Show respect for animals and protect them.
What a pack of idiots
Where is this?
