I was so scared when the otter jumped back in the water. I thought it was getting attacked out there. But I don't expect The Dodo to have such an unhappy ending...so fortunately the little one survived ;)
A little more "empathy" would have been better. The otter was terrified and you scared her back into the water by not giving her that little space. The words " I'm not going to hurt you" seemed so adequate to you. As if you were expecting a "thank you" or as if talking to your pet dog. Fortunately, the 2nd time you knew better and gave her some space. Still, your own fear was understandable when the "killer whale" circled your boat.
@@javierzegarra1933 - I think it's a natural reaction. I said the same thing one night when a flying squirrel got into my house. Of course that only made him more frightened. Lesson learned.

WOW, that really brought tears to my eyes, after the Otter left the boat the first time and it looked like the Orca had got it, I got so choked up and I said out loud " Oh I don't want to see that " because I thought we were going to see the Otter get killed! But I was so relived when I saw her jump back in the boat and even go further in the boat, and was so so happy when the guy drove away from the Orca with the Otter! That guy became a Otter Hero to that little Otter!
Otter: "'Im on a boat (I'm on a boat) I'm on a boat (I'm on a boat) Hey Orca, look at me I'm on a boat (I'm on a boat) I'm on a boat Now you can't devour ME! Cause I'm on a boat."
For all the people saying the otter was too tired to make it to land: it is a *sea otter* not a seal. Sea otters don't live on land. They spend their entire lives floating on their backs or swimming in the ocean. (They even sleep and give birth in the water.) As long as no predatory animals came along afterwards, she was fine.

@@jollyjoker888 Yeah the emotional tone is so off. He basically scared the otter out for a close-up video. Luckily the orca seemed more curious than hungry and tested the otter (maybe got bitten) instead of yeeping it with its tail or sthg.
They do understand the love in your voice and calmness. Why do you think dogs wag their tails and respond to it as well. Or how you can call a cat to you, or any animal for that matter? Yes, body language and tones of voice are universal. People can commune with any animal, even alligators. Hippos? Not sure about those guys.
@@99999janice Well, it's the same with any other animals that hunt. Take a sperms whale for example, they hunt giant squids amd eat them. Or a lion or a tiger. Almost any other predator does that. Btw, I'm not trying to make you mad, I'm just stating a fact.
- maybe leave it alone - not make eye contact or try to communicate with it - just leave it alone - it is trying to figure out what the best option is - the otter is used to being in the water so it is on unfamiliar turf as it is - less is more
So, rather than move to the front of his boat so that the otter could hide at the back of his boat, A$$HOLE John got right on top of it with his camera and pressured it back into the water.
The orca would have worn the otter down but the boat was in the right place at the right time though I'm glad the little fur ball was OK. Though the orca is my favourite ocean dweller
@@Truthwins52 Orcas literally hunt whales and great white sharks, a damn croc in deep enough water for an orca to be in wouldn't stand a chance no matter how fast they can swim
Who knows. The idiot dropped it off at the middle of nowhere. Is the poor otter have the energy to swim to the land whitout drowning from exhaustion ? Should have dropped him off at the land or very close to it.
@@tjp_real nothing makes you happy huh? The guy helped him get away “IDIOT FOR DROPPING HIM IN MIDDLE” Commentator says it’a a normal food chain event “NOBODY SHOULD HELP YOU IF YOU GET EATEN BY WOLVES” Lmao wolves don’t eat humans as part of the food chain. :)
My goodness that poor little otter was absolutely petrified. The natural world is both incredibly beautiful but also incredibly brutal and unforgiving. As horrible as it can be to see these predatory behaviours, it’s actually what makes animals stronger because they have to adapt, evolve, overcome and this only happens in a challenging environment.
@@wesleydonnelly2141 Being a Brit you may not understand how the American media and the powers that be have twisted the facts. Trump has hired many blacks and had a black woman prominently featured on his tv show, whereas Biden voted against desegregation, and gave the eulogy at a KKK member’s funeral, but Trump is the racist. The truth is that Trump was a political outsider who used his own money to finance his campaign, therefore he was beholden to no one. That threatened the status quo, so he had to be done away with, and that was accomplished through a massive character assassination plan carried out by the media.
i think it was the aggression and predatory mode of the orca that the man felt. He said he never felt that before with an orca because orcas don't hunt humans.
Maybe if you gave the otter some space instead of standing above it filming, it wouldn't have risked going back in with the orca. I'm glad it ultimately decided you were less of a threat and jumped back onboard.
I was thinking the same thing.. He went back in because the guy didn't keep his distance. It's lucky the otter survived by getting back on the boat a second time.
Thank you so much for saving the otter and making sure it was a safe distance from the orca before getting back into the water and swimming safely away. That orca was on a mission...wow.
Circle of life. There is an old video of a seal escaping Orca about the back of a boat. NO crap your stomach was in knots, thinking "I'm going to need a bigger boat."
I once saw a clip of a guy pick up a black bear and her 2 cubs from drowning in a small 14 ft. aluminum boat in a lake, that takes some guts or lack of self preservation and some serious compassion to do that feat but the bear hopped right out when she and her offspring hit the shore.
This was so sad, I know this is nature’s way but I felt such emotion and sympathy for this otter. He could have been a meal for the orca🥲 thank you for sharing this amazing video! GOD bless you. It’s no coincidence , the timing was perfect. 👍🏻
@Fractal Chaos just because it’s natural doesn’t mean there isn’t fear and suffering involved. It definitely affects me emotionally to see this, even though I recognize that this is how nature is. I am deeply empathetic towards animals when I can see that they are suffering. And before you say I’m a hypocrite - this applies to all animals and is the reason I am vegan.
@@sarahhilton7681 Than you are not a hypocrite at all. The thing that annoys me is people's obsession's with cuteness in animals and how that relates to funding. This is actually a big issue for nature conservation because animals that people think are cute tend to get disproportionate funding over protecting wildlife and ecosystems. I love dogs and cats but at the end of the day protecting wild animals and our ecosystem is much more important than stray dogs or cats, which get way more money.
@@mzple ah yeah, I totally agree that what you mentioned about people just caring about “cute” animals is a huge problem. One thing to note though, is that stray domestic dogs and cats can actually affect wild animals really negatively too though, by taking over their habitats and hunting animals who live in them. So taking stray dogs and cats, getting them spayed and neutered, and getting them into indoor forever homes does actually help wild animals quite a bit too.
@@sarahhilton7681 That's true. Unfortunately, millions of cats are trapped, neutered and then released. Even if stray or feral cats are fed they'll still hunt.
@@lottasunshine1325 at least getting them fixed is better than leaving them intact, as even though they’ll still be out there hunting they won’t be having additional offspring who will do the same
I was getting mad at the guy because he kept getting close to the otter scaring him to the water, lol. I would have got far away. I know its normal but for me I will alway help the little guy. Thanks God one small victory lol.
That's what I kept thinking too! When I saw the orca nab the otter the first time I thought, "wow, he basically killed it" bc it wouldn't have jumped off his boat the first time if he hadn't been so close.
WOW 👏!! Glad the little dude lived and overcame it's terror of the Orca and his fear of man in order to survive. Hoorah for the otter. Thank you captain for being encouraging to that little buddy.
I love how when the guy said I'm not going to hurt you the otter looked back up and the guy says you can chill here as long as you need. The Otter looked up like "God Bless you" you could see the despair in it's eyes. it looked so exhausted and this video gets me right in the feels. Good on you ship captain poor girl probably got a mess of pups she needed to get home to.
"Also human: proceeds to follow him with the camera." I'll never understand why people do that. They know the otter is spooked and doesn't really trust humans either. For the otter, he's choosing the lesser of the two evils which is why he jumped on the boat with the humans.
@@disappeared3803 " "Also human: proceeds to follow him with the camera." He was basically on top of the otter. Doesn't his camera have ZOOM feature so he could stand a comfortable distance away (not spook the otter) and still get the footage?
that day the orca got pissed, when the otter left that boat the orca was chasing them.... his death wasnt caught on camera, but that day the orca hunted 2x the usual amount of otters...

Nature…awesome! I love how the guy didnt interfere, he was just there, watched, and the otter used his boat for a bit. And how that otter escaped when attacked after his first rest on the boat is beyond me. Respect nature, respect animals, they are smarter than many think
He did interfere when he approached the otter while it was on the boat which caused the otter to jump back in the water sooner than it would without the human scaring it.
Lol i was thinking the same thing. Thankfully, she took her chances w the strange, excited, fleshy land creature instead! Second time around, she definitely understood that he wasnt the enemy and stayed on board. Im thankful that he didnt kick her off and let her hitch a ride with him :)
@@joeyblack986 your risking your own life by letting it on your boat and animal abuse? No their already invading the orcas feeding grounds to film to actually their in the wrong im just being realistic
Exactly my thoughts as well. Why do you have to stalk that poor thing with a cam standing like a giant above it. Just for a freaking video, people are so dumb those days.
@@fnonaka He could have easily gotten on top of the cabin and recorded everything without standing right next to the otter and chasing it back into the water.
That was one lucky Otter, because the Orcas game is to wear their prey down and it’s almost like the Otter knew that it wouldn’t make it without getting back on the boat! Obviously smart enough to make the quick decision on which was the less dangerous option!
Orcas are super smart. That would take too much energy and would risk it being cut or injured by the metal boat trying to get to 1 otter. They are at the top of the food chain. Not even great white sharks stand a chance. Only other whales larger than them stand a chance and even then since orca hunt in packs hence the term sea wolves - even full size whales get taken out by packs of orca. Orca are know to kill otters and sea lions and toss them up in the air to each other. Like playing catch. So you never know maybe this whale wasn't even hungry and just wanted to practice being at the top of the food chain on this single otter.
I watched a documentary from animal planet that they learned Orcas have a very complex language system with passed down knowledge and they are fully aware starting fights with humans doesnt go well.
That boat isn't a large boat. Also, cameras have zoom. Sorry to say this to you, but the rest of the ocean won't stop for a tired otter being tortured by an orca.
You know what's amazing. When that otter was in the boat, And the orca swim up and realized it. The orker backed off and swim away. That just shows you. It knew Not to harm the boat or the people on it, it knows the difference. Their intelligence is quite scary.
Freaking moron. Pissed me off cause this idiot thinks it's cool like an f***ing snowflake and wants to take videos instead of letting the guy hang out in safety. Wouldn't have been exhausted had he left it alone the first time, but no, lets gets pictures, stress it out some more and have it jump back in the water. Story ended well but hopefully another animal in danger doesn't come across this human being.
@@drmgnmlk2 In this case, filming meant getting closer to the otter and staring at it with strange eye. Otter did not know filming. Otter did know spooky thing getting closer, making noise and no eyes.
The otter couldn't decide at first who was less dangerous, he finally took a chance with the human.

I was so scared when the otter jumped back in the water. I thought it was getting attacked out there. But I don't expect The Dodo to have such an unhappy ending...so fortunately the little one survived ;)
Wow that poor Otter is literally swimming for his life Y'all were at the right place and right time for him 🙏❤
A little more "empathy" would have been better. The otter was terrified and you scared her back into the water by not giving her that little space. The words " I'm not going to hurt you" seemed so adequate to you. As if you were expecting a "thank you" or as if talking to your pet dog. Fortunately, the 2nd time you knew better and gave her some space. Still, your own fear was understandable when the "killer whale" circled your boat.

Wow, never saw that before, a fight for your life. Glad otter was smart enough to hop the boat. Great of boat owner to let him come on for safety.
Why are you glad?
WOW, that really brought tears to my eyes, after the Otter left the boat the first time and it looked like the Orca had got it, I got so choked up and I said out loud " Oh I don't want to see that " because I thought we were going to see the Otter get killed! But I was so relived when I saw her jump back in the boat and even go further in the boat, and was so so happy when the guy drove away from the Orca with the Otter!
That guy became a Otter Hero to that little Otter!
Such a cute otter, they are such amazing animals!! That orca was incredible too! Wow!

That man will forever be changed by that experience. The depth of emotion I felt watching this - priceless.
For all the people saying the otter was too tired to make it to land: it is a *sea otter* not a seal. Sea otters don't live on land. They spend their entire lives floating on their backs or swimming in the ocean. (They even sleep and give birth in the water.) As long as no predatory animals came along afterwards, she was fine.
It is capable of it, but no they don't all live on the sea, they usually live on shorelines.

They do understand the love in your voice and calmness. Why do you think dogs wag their tails and respond to it as well. Or how you can call a cat to you, or any animal for that matter?
Yes, body language and tones of voice are universal. People can commune with any animal, even alligators. Hippos? Not sure about those guys.

@@99999janice Well, it's the same with any other animals that hunt. Take a sperms whale for example, they hunt giant squids amd eat them. Or a lion or a tiger. Almost any other predator does that. Btw, I'm not trying to make you mad, I'm just stating a fact.
Everybody's gotta eat.
Orcas are actually jerks that will torture their prey and NOT just kill for food.
- maybe leave it alone - not make eye contact or try to communicate with it -
just leave it alone - it is trying to figure out what the best option is - the otter is used to being in the water so it is on unfamiliar turf as it is - less is more
Talk about being at the right place at the right time. I know that otter is glad you were there.

Well the orca has to eat something you know. Animals get eaten, that's nature. The otter got away, but the orca lost a meal.

My goodness that poor little otter was absolutely petrified. The natural world is both incredibly beautiful but also incredibly brutal and unforgiving.

The truth is that Trump was a political outsider who used his own money to finance his campaign, therefore he was beholden to no one. That threatened the status quo, so he had to be done away with, and that was accomplished through a massive character assassination plan carried out by the media.

'Hero'?? The otter saved its own life. The human didn't do anything.
Look up 'hero' in the dictionary.
Maybe if you gave the otter some space instead of standing above it filming, it wouldn't have risked going back in with the orca. I'm glad it ultimately decided you were less of a threat and jumped back onboard.
I was thinking the same thing.. He went back in because the guy didn't keep his distance. It's lucky the otter survived by getting back on the boat a second time.
Why are you glad?
Exactly!
Orcas are super intelligent. I guarantee sooner or later, the otter was still caught ad had as sa nice meal by the Orca.
Thank you so much for saving the otter and making sure it was a safe distance from the orca before getting back into the water and swimming safely away.
That orca was on a mission...wow.
You are thanking him for making an animal starve?
Circle of life. There is an old video of a seal escaping Orca about the back of a boat. NO crap your stomach was in knots, thinking "I'm going to need a bigger boat."
I once saw a clip of a guy pick up a black bear and her 2 cubs from drowning in a small 14 ft. aluminum boat in a lake, that takes some guts or lack of self preservation and some serious compassion to do that feat but the bear hopped right out when she and her offspring hit the shore.
@@zedwolf1589 oh sh*t you’re right, you dont mess with a bear and its cubs thats when you know it’ll attack you

Bless you for being in the right place at the right time ! Can you just imagine the fear that poor baby felt ? 😪🙏❤
@Fractal Chaos just because it’s natural doesn’t mean there isn’t fear and suffering involved. It definitely affects me emotionally to see this, even though I recognize that this is how nature is. I am deeply empathetic towards animals when I can see that they are suffering. And before you say I’m a hypocrite - this applies to all animals and is the reason I am vegan.
@@sarahhilton7681 Than you are not a hypocrite at all. The thing that annoys me is people's obsession's with cuteness in animals and how that relates to funding. This is actually a big issue for nature conservation because animals that people think are cute tend to get disproportionate funding over protecting wildlife and ecosystems. I love dogs and cats but at the end of the day protecting wild animals and our ecosystem is much more important than stray dogs or cats, which get way more money.
@@mzple ah yeah, I totally agree that what you mentioned about people just caring about “cute” animals is a huge problem. One thing to note though, is that stray domestic dogs and cats can actually affect wild animals really negatively too though, by taking over their habitats and hunting animals who live in them. So taking stray dogs and cats, getting them spayed and neutered, and getting them into indoor forever homes does actually help wild animals quite a bit too.
@@sarahhilton7681 That's true. Unfortunately, millions of cats are trapped, neutered and then released. Even if stray or feral cats are fed they'll still hunt.
@@lottasunshine1325 at least getting them fixed is better than leaving them intact, as even though they’ll still be out there hunting they won’t be having additional offspring who will do the same
I was getting mad at the guy because he kept getting close to the otter scaring him to the water, lol. I would have got far away. I know its normal but for me I will alway help the little guy. Thanks God one small victory lol.

"Also human: proceeds to follow him with the camera."
I'll never understand why people do that. They know the otter is spooked and doesn't really trust humans either. For the otter, he's choosing the lesser of the two evils which is why he jumped on the boat with the humans.

Nature…awesome! I love how the guy didnt interfere, he was just there, watched, and the otter used his boat for a bit. And how that otter escaped when attacked after his first rest on the boat is beyond me. Respect nature, respect animals, they are smarter than many think
The person filming scared the otter off if his boat by getting too to the otter in his his hurry to film it.
He did interfere when he approached the otter while it was on the boat which caused the otter to jump back in the water sooner than it would without the human scaring it.
The guy should have given the otter some space when she jumped on board to relax & not quickly rushed to video record the event

I watched an animal documentary of a pack or orcas tipping an ice float to knock the sea lions off and eat them.
@@justcallmerichard7596 Except icebergs don't scream and (if the humans are willing) shoot at you.
At some point the orca could've decided, "Peace was never an option." And try to overturn the boat. But no it decided to let it go.
Orcas are super smart. That would take too much energy and would risk it being cut or injured by the metal boat trying to get to 1 otter. They are at the top of the food chain. Not even great white sharks stand a chance. Only other whales larger than them stand a chance and even then since orca hunt in packs hence the term sea wolves - even full size whales get taken out by packs of orca. Orca are know to kill otters and sea lions and toss them up in the air to each other. Like playing catch. So you never know maybe this whale wasn't even hungry and just wanted to practice being at the top of the food chain on this single otter.
They're usually nice to us in the wild. They have snatched prey off a boat or surfboard, but the otter was careful to stay behind barriers.
I watched a documentary from animal planet that they learned Orcas have a very complex language system with passed down knowledge and they are fully aware starting fights with humans doesnt go well.
