An amazing sighting today of Western Australia. Humpback #whale mother with two calves…. This is unusual. Twins? (Unlikely, not impossible), Escorting another calf? #WAtchthisspace #whaleon #WA #westernaustralia #australia 📸 Nigaloo Aviation
Things are getting even crazier here in Iceland.. this morning, Orca Guardians Iceland spotted a group of orcas travelling with a newborn WHITE-BEAKED DOLPHIN calf! What on earth is going on? 🤯 Via Orca Guardians Iceland

Loro Parque announce death of 20 year old female orca Kohana. She had health issues for some time, a necropsy will be carried out to help determine cause of death. Kohana was born May 2002 at SeaWorld San Diego.
Rest in Peace, Nakai 💔

It's hard to believe that L124 Whistle is now 3 years old! Whistle was first sighted on live aerial footage on January 10th, 2019 and was estimated to be several weeks old. Whistle also has one of the most unique looking saddlepatches I've ever seen! Happy "birthday", L124! 🎊
Clearwater Marine Aquarium is excited to announce it has been selected by National Marine Fisheries Service (NMFS) to be the forever home to a new rescued male bottlenose dolphin named Apollo! Read more: bit.ly/3GHya4h
Winter’s preliminary necropsy results have revealed that Winter died from intestinal torsion, which is unfortunately a non operable condition. She will be missed dearly. Read CMA’s statement here: cmaquarium.org/winter-updates/

With heavy hearts, CMA announced tonight that Winter the Dolphin died at approximately 8 p.m. as animal care experts from around the country worked to treat her gastrointestinal abnormality. The CMA family is devastated. Read more: bit.ly/3BZfcUd
The headlines on the discovery of the new kind of killer whale are so far off the mark they needed to be addressed.
Northern Bottlenose Whales are HUGE. I always pictured them similar in size to pilot whales, but nope, they're BIG.

@MairsAngela @LangurLover They are. Because all dolphins are whales. Saying orcas aren't whales because they're dolphins is like saying a ball python isn't a snake, it's a python.
@MairsAngela @delphindae @LangurLover All dolphins are whales. Orcas are a dolphin AND a whale.
@MairsAngela @LangurLover Orcas are dolphins. Just like Ball Pythons are Pythons. Does that mean they're not snakes? No. It just means they're BOTH. Orcas are dolphins, but they are also whales. Because all dolphins are whales. Literally just basic taxonomy dude.
If only all captives (especially those that came from the wild) could be shown this kind of deference.

Reading discourse over whether or not wild bears should be given nicknames bc “people will think they’re pets” Everyone involved with wild killer whales:
A mass stranding of pilot whales in the westfjords of Iceland was reported this morning, about 50 whales stranded but unfortunately all have died. ruv.is/frett/2021/10/…
Unfortunately I wasn’t able to adopt L25 this month (bummer) but I’m hoping I can adopt her for Christmas !
