Heliked dolphins and manatees, but he loved whales. Beluga whales from the arcticwere really neat, but it was the Killer Whales especially that had his heart.For hours, from the park openinguntil closing, he could watch them. Their black and white patterned skinreminded him of tuxedo, a penguin or even a zebra, but on the whales it seemedeven more special. It made them stand out in the water. Their playfulness andintelligence amazed him, too. He liked to watch the trainers coax them throughjumps, leaps, and other tricks. They talked and squawked at the trainers.Onetime the trainer even got launched into the air off the whale?s nose. It was animpressive feat.It always surprised him how fastand agile such massive creature could be. He always expected them to be slowand lumbering, but they were fast like bullet, darting through their huge tanksand exploding from the water.In the park, they ate fish andother snacks, and lots of them. In the wild, he understood why they had theirfierce name. They could eat seals, sea lions, small whales and just aboutanything they could catch. Their teeth were sharp and predatory.They were thetop of the food chain - even more dangerous than sharks. The killer whales wereamazing animals. They inspired him to learn more about the sea.
