"G'daaaaay mate!" blowhole sprays "See ya!"
I'll bet it enjoyed the petting and kudos for showing it respect!
I would have jumped on and taken a little ride of a lifetime!!!
failure of a clip….. dont you guys like produce media for a paycheck? arent you experienced in producing media enough to figure out how audio works? arent you intelligent enough to do a voiceover of some variety?
wheres the audio????
Yeah, let's save the world. The bugs were lucky to get out with their lives.
Cute ❤
It died people, and now the government wants to get rid of it because they say it makes the water dirty, most likely greedy people think it's to expensive for fish food so are going to turn it into money, well they could have a point because did you know that fish pee and poo in the water too and in drinking water eooowww!!, I hope they're still not trying to get rid of all the fish in the oceans,
You're behind in the news and it is not a touchy, feely, story. It is an old whale, came in to peacefully die, Perth folk should know better than to approach and distress the poor animal, especially for selfies. It swam further down the Perth coast to Rockingham, where it has beached itself in the shallow waters and sheltered cove. It got injured by a boat on the way down too. No happy ending for this majestic creature. Rockingham foreshore beach has been shut off to the public, for the whale and peoples sake. Sharks tend to come and feed off dying and dead whales, you see.
The Rangers are discussing whether to quickly euthanized it, beaching in shallow waters puts a huge amount of pressure on it's organs and it will slowly die.
Poor whale, we wish you well and thank you for inhabiting the earth at the same time as us.
Is that whale ill? They dont usually come in that close unless they are dying
What a lucky bunch…
“Is anyone here a marine biologist?!”
IYKYK 😎
It was clos to being beached and losing its life. Thank God it finally went into deeper water.
Incredible moment!!! So blessed you got to be there to touch one of God's most majestic creations!!! ❤ PRAISE KING JESUS❤
Poor Rosie O'Donnel can't even take a vacation without being harassed.
Thats Orca Pimpfree
Cool
Saint FRANCIS Assisi, arm us for BATTLE! Amen.
Pretty sure that’s a humpback whale, the puppies of the sea.
The whale is looking for government handouts just like everyone else…..
That's a once in a lifetime experience, probably for BOTH species!
Isnt there a general consensus of not approaching marine animals?
That’s either a Grey Whale 🐳 or a Humpback 🐋. But I just read a 52 Ft whale 🐋 beached itself off of Baha California but I don’t think 🤔 it’s a Blue Whale. They are the biggest baleen whales of all… 🤓
Awesome! Very cool!
come here kitty kitty, come eat some human snacks
Sperm whale? I can't tell from the aerial video
AND WHY CANT YOU HAVE MORE THINGS LIKE THAT
That would be a lifetime experience. 😊
They obviously know a lot about this species to be swimming towards it & not away 🤯
Human amazed or fascinated with the event but their must be a scientific reason why the whale was too near to the shore.
I saw very little coverage on the awesome 16-year-old cheerleader American citizen that was killed by an undocumented alien is how it was said let me translate that illegal immigrant The anger of her family must be overwhelming
