The close up on her leg :o Tbh Shes lucky
I think it was playing, it could of completely slaughtered her. Also, it is far from cruel, they actually like it. Dolphins find swimming with humans awfully fun, because they like having someone to swim with them who needs the aid of them. It's sweet, really.
Yes it was playing. But would you like someone shoved on your back and you forced to run around? Stupid question, of course you would but thats not the point :PQuote:

Here's the flaw in your argument. I am not a killer whale ;) So I would not know, and most animals, if they are uncomfortable, would just shake off whatever is on their back "/Quote:

Mhm. A neighbours dog got put down after her neighbour said the dog "bit him."Quote:

I'm more sad for the whale tho
If animals didn't want humans to do what they want; they'd get their AK-47's out and well, you know...
yeah you're so funny. not. talk about a a grumpy wanna be funny screw bag.Quote:

jus had em now kk bubbz best m8z yeh, my m8
looks like she got her moneys worth...
why the hell would you ride a killer whale? tbf, their name sums up their character.
I feel sorry for the Orca. I am big on animal cruelty campaigns and the WWF and all, so the woman really shouldn't be messing around on it.
I dont think Orcas are, as there are loads kept in captivity around the world, and there seems to be plenty on wildlife shows :PQuote:
Can they do that? i thought they were endangered or somthing?
serves her right, i have no sympathy.
they shouldnt have put it down as obviously killer whales arn't meant to be rode..
i know thats animal cruelty really ;l it wasnt its own fault some girl wanted to ride on it. :@Quote:

A human on a whales back is probably like a bag with a few light things in on ours. It would be like a feather to a whale. Plus whales can swim and move around in the water VERY easily. It's not like a human going on a whales back is going to do it any harm...Quote:

when we went, our dolphin started doing tricks with thefih it was given, showing that it's not food motivation.
anyone who said she deserved it is just as bad, maybe yr against animal cruelty but that woman is human, she doesn't deserve it just as much as the anima doesn't deserve to be keptin captivity.

Tbh, i only have a problem with the putting the whale down, playing with its nothing wrong in my book, but killing the whale when it plays along isnt really playing fair now is it. She knew the risk, if she wasnt prepared to be in a possible accident she should never had got in the tank.
don't killer whales, usually kill people anyway? its like me riding on a crocodile ;l
good.
she knew the risk, she knew what she was getting into.
if it wanted to the whale could have shredded her to pieces?
Did anyone notice her bikini pants coming off lol
She got what she deserved tbh.
The stupid girl shouldn't ride on the back of
the whale in the first place.
When the whale had the girls leg in it's mouth
he could of bit it off EASY.
You can't force whales and dolphins to do things like
tricks and stuff, dolphins love the company of humans so
most of the time they just come out because they like the company,
also, you don't actually ride dolphins they hold onto you,
or vice versa.
Anyway, to sum it all up - the girl was stupid
shouldn't of ridden on the whale, the whale shouldn't of been
put down, its not the whales fault it doesn't want people
riding on it's back.
kind of deserved it really i mean its not as though theres no warning in the name
Yet you don't realise that you are not a killer whale and your example is very bad. You are the same size as your friends (roughly). We are 1/5 a killer whale (which is a guess) in size. It would be like having an adult cat lay on your back, painless "/Quote:
