Title: Whales
Post by: redrider on January 11, 2016, 05:07:43 PM

Saw this from Alaska. Made my ride today in the 40's pale by comparison.

Heavens no. On my ride today I saw a couple of them on the road piloted by the usual suspects. 45F and no helmet, do-rag or caps.

  I hope the feds view that video and use it to prosecute the jet skiers.  They were much closer to the orcas than the law allows. That constitutes harassment of marine mammals.  If the orcas had wanted to kill them, they would have done it.
 They were feeding.  How would you like it if you needed to hunt food to survive and a bunch of tourists were interfering with your hunt causing you to be less able to catch food.
 Those dumb assholes need to be arrested and their jet skis confiscated, then criminal charges brought against them.
 It is a punishable offense by law to be that close to orcas or whales.  The fact that they were interfering with the orcas' hunt for food just makes it worse.  They are criminals and should be prosecuted as such.
 Saying that the orcas came to you doesn't fly as an excuse.  The orcas go where the food is.  If that means you have to relocate to stay out of their way, so be it.  Just relocate and let them have that part of the ocean.  It is theirs anyway.

Take a pill Mate. This was in NZ and they were doing nothing wrong.

 So I guess Kiwis are allowed to harass marine mammals?

Hopefully next time the Orca's will seek their own revenge! Definitely idiots.

If you think they were doing nothing wrong, you're part of the problem.
I'm with Jim too.

Orcas are supreme, saw a few here and there while living in big brawling Alaska. Always wanted to see a Blue Whale. 

Here you go...
