Even though it was originally posted awhile ago, this amazing video has resurfaced recently in the web world. It shows a young orca doing its best imitation of the Johnson outboard it seems to have befriended. This particular whale is actually the star of, well, The Whale – a documentary that is now screening in select cities.
This is not the first example of the orca’s affinity for boats that we’ve seen – check out this gallery and screensaver featuring the amazing photography of Fernando Almada, a charter captain in San Carlos, Mexico.
