my question is...why would captive orcas who are regularly fed want to hunt seagulls....they must be really really bored _________________ People's whole lives do pass before their eyes before they die. The process is called living.

Most "higher-level" predators have a play/hunt instinct -- just getting food from the keepers won't satisfy that. _________________ "Instead, it has always been there. I found it during the CT scan last year, when the mummy was lifted. It lay loose in the sand around the king's body. It was mummified," Zahi Hawass, chief of Egypt's Supreme Council of Antiquities, told Discovery News. |

i guess i'm used to the idea of keepers setting up stuff to occupy the whales' time so that they don't start injuring themselves/each other...plus all those tricks...but i dunno what they do at this place...bored animals get creative with their food _________________ People's whole lives do pass before their eyes before they die.
