They’re so cute!! I want to touch one. I played with little ones in Sea World they were so friendly. Maybe these are immigrating.

Thats a first
Did they give the right for killer whales to vote?
I really do hope nobody hurt them… Killer Whales are one of the nicest animals out there..
I hope they are not hurt as well.
I wish someone could back this for us ; I haven’t seen anything in the papers or online about this (other than this clip) and it seems highly unlikely that Orcas would lose their way so far into the Gulf waters.
That has got to be one of the most beautiful sights in the world to just stumble upon, in Kuwait or anywhere else.
If I saw killer whales like that, wild and free, the way they were meant to be, I would probably get all choked up :/

صورها أحد الحداقة قرب شيب خساره بمحادق الفنطاس
حيتان «الاوريكا» القاتلة في بحر الكويت
كتب خليل التميمي
أعلن موقع قاروه الالكتروني المهتم بالشؤون البحرية عن دخول قطيع من الحيتان الى مياه الكويت وتحديداً بالقرب من شيب خساره كما يعرفه «الحداقه» واهل البحر.
وقال مدير الموقع محمد المرعي بان صور الحيتان التي حملت على الموقع التقطها مؤخرا الحداق أحمد الفرحان في محادق الفنطاس وتحديداً قرب شيب خساره حيث كان في رحلة حداق ليفاجأ بقطيع الحيتان وهي من نوع الحوت القاتل «اوريكا».
واضاف المرعي بان «حداقة» اخرين كانوا قد شاهدوا حيتان في بحر الكويت وبالذات جهة الاقواع الشمالية مشيراً الى ان الحيتان لا تدخل الخلجان الضيقة مثل الخليج العربي الا في حال ان تكون اضاعت طريقها في المحيط.

==========================
According to Garooh, a site that deals with marine subjects, a pod of whales entered Kuwaiti waters near known fishing area.
The site’s administrator Mohammed Al-Maree said that the photos of the whales were taken by fisherman Ahmad Al-Farhan, in the Fintas fishing area where he was suprised to sea a pod of Orca Killer whales.
Al-Maree added that there have also been reports of whale sightings by other fisherman in other areas however it is unusual for whales to come into the narrow waters of the Arabian Gulf unless they have lost the way.
Was planing on Goin scuba last friday hoping to see them or get a glimps of the magnifisent creatures unfortunately the sea condition didn’t allow us inshalla next time =)
