Killer Whale Learns to Mimic Human Speech

killer whale speech

 

 Back in 2013, a documentary entitled "Blackfish" was released and had everyone talking about Seaworld and the mistreatment of "Killer" whales.  The film opened a lot of peoples eyes, especially since it was featured on Netflix.  Now, new audio has been released of a killer whale mimicking human speech.  Although the animal is recorded just mimicking and not using the human speech as a form of communication with other whales, scientists say that this may be possible in the future.  This is yet another reason why these animals should be protected and not abused.  Everyday we learn new things about animals and although we always consider ourselves superior to these species, we must learn to respect all life. Check out the impressive audio below!
