CNN Animal News Video (From Chris Slingerland) – Boaters in La Jolla, California Encounter a Killer Whale

The following animal video aired on CNN. It is originally from Chris Slingerland and was added to CNN’s website on July 23, 2012.

Boaters were in the Pacific Ocean, off the coast of La Jolla, California. This is when they spotted a killer whale (sometimes referred to as an “orca”). These animals are famous due in large part to SeaWorld and the movie Free Willy. Killer whales look a lot like a large black and white dolphin. In fact, they are part of the dolphin family.

In this clip, the killer whale was swimming under the boat. You can then see him coming up for air and blowing water through his blowhole. It would have been nice to see a big jump like the orca in Free Willy. But beggars can’t be choosers. It’s still a nice sighting.
