Whales are curious. Many moons ago we took friends out to Hansen island in Johnstone Strait across from Robson Bight. 4 Orcas surfaced about 75 feet from our boat and “spyhopped” several times as we were awed and waved to them. I am sure they were more than aware of our presence and that we were a different species but social and curious as well. They shouldn’t be locked up in prisons, (Seaworld etc.) but left to travel as they need to. The resident northern eat “Spring salmon” (Kings to other folks) and are good neighbours showing off their offsring to us when we go whalewatching. Go figure.
