DC Tom Posted February 25, 2010 Share Posted February 25, 2010 Wild horses are big and untamed too. And will kill you if you get too close. They call them "killer whales" for a reason. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dib Posted February 25, 2010 Share Posted February 25, 2010 And will kill you if you get too close. They call them "killer whales" for a reason. the killer whale (actually a porpoise) derives it's name from when ancient seafarers observed the Orca killing whales, so the name Whale Killer stuck. Orca probably derives from Orcus a ferocious Roman God Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Adams Posted February 25, 2010 Share Posted February 25, 2010 Killer Whales actually don't attack humans in the wild... Pretty small sample on that statistic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John from Riverside Posted February 25, 2010 Share Posted February 25, 2010 Yes...but I always feel compelled to make sure it's understood that it's her half the family. Probably because it would otherwise be somewhat awkward explaining how I have a neice and nephew three years younger than I. But mostly because I'm an asocial bastard who doesn't want to claime anything resembling a relationship with other people. DC....I thought you said it because he was a little a hole and couldnt stand him.... I got a couple like that....and they are my WIFES FAMILY....

John from Riverside Posted February 25, 2010 Share Posted February 25, 2010 Orcas do in fact enjoy seals for a meal though if I am correct...... We look a lot like seals......even more so in the wetsuits. And sharks mistake us for seals all the time. A truly awe inspiring and beutiful creature.....and you couldn't pay me to get in the water with them. I have a shark phobia as it is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
