Mystic Aquarium - White Beluga Whale Splashes Audience 

😂😂

I was thinking the same

👊

And then spitting on him

You thunk

what the fuck!??!?!? how the fuck are you here!??!?!

U blooddy thaey r not afraid of lityle water

If they r afraid ofblittle wayer thet will not splash the water outside

@@ghidorahgaming8163 he was speaking for the beluga

Yes they can feel the vibrations in the water & it disturbs them Actually ,even in fish tanks or aquariums...nobody must tap on the galss . It must b taught in school .This is akin to bullying (which must also stop )

@@kavyanair1974 agreed! Schools and ppl in general should not be allowed to touch the glass. I know they post signs but i still see children on school trips tapping, slapping, and knocking on the glass. When the aquatic animal can't take it anymore it attacks and ppl always say " i don't know what happened." # ban seaworld

@@violetlove1893 I don't like when something or someone is loud, but it can't hurt me, however if it was made too much often it would be really annoying.

@@andrekerterso353 i can understand that. But please consider the sensitive hearing and echolocation used by marine mammals and some fish. It is the equivalent of clashing cymbals directly on the lobe of your ears.. The poor babies

​@@kavyanair1974 bullying will never stop LMAO. I will say that the reaction of the beluga is definitely not a serious problem though. As belugas in captivity are usually very social with both their keepers and the public who see them. With the glass tapping not being violent the beluga splashed him to make the person laugh

😯 That's interesting

The equivalent of a monkey throwing shit.. People think its playfull but im not so sure about that....

🙋

yesssss!!! me too

Same😂❤ And that's the reason I liked this video ☺

Yes, 😊😊

@Michelle better then letting them get killed by like a shark

@JayLeeBeanzbetter than the species going extinct. You people act like it's hell for the beluga. It's got friends, it gets free food, it gets social needs, it gets a enclosure that is up with regulations, its safe from predators and the money the zoo makes goes directly to saving other members of the species from illegal fishing, disease ect.

JayLeeBeanz A Shark does not kill quick, that whale will be going through hell if a Shark decided to attack as it’d attempt to take a bite out of the sides of it and basically guillotine, it’d be suffering way more than it does in a happy and fun enclosure. I mean dying slowly however in a happy environment where you get all the care, all the food, and can swim without having to worry about predators? However it is sometimes the case where these animals have the worse care, however it isn’t always like that.

Bee Bee Nyne Eee actually, whales and similar animals don’t have enough space. They’re meant to live in giant oceans. Without this space, they get depressed and bored. When they get depressed and bored, some begin to self harm by slamming into walls. It’s really sad. I was in an environmental science class last year and we learned about all sorts of things. Whales outside of zoos aren’t much better due to noise pollution but that’s a story for another day.

@JayLeeBeanz so you would rather go to hell instead of heaven? That’s nice

And cute, white, beautiful.

Clearly never have been to an aquarium or zoo.

Yeah u stupid as fuck, u have never been to a zoo or aquarium 🙄wake up zoos and aquariums are all around the world

@@luyolomenziwa800 ur an idiot 😃

@@luyolomenziwa800 Just because something is widely accepted, doesn't mean it's good. Like eating animal products for example.

@@NautyCat fuck u hippie 🖕

In the wild, animals are in a constant state of fight or flight. They’re in survival mode. I feel like a good sanctuary, zoo, or aquarium puts these animals in a situation where we get to see and experience these animals when they’re not just surviving. They get to play, form bonds, experience things they wouldn’t normally experience like music and art. I think facilities have an obligation to continue evolving, but as we learn more about their behavior in survival mode versus when survival needs are already met I think facilities will naturally adjust to their needs. I think it’s thanks to these facilities and sanctuaries that we get to learn just how intelligent and emotional these animals are. How similar they are to us and how we fit in their world. We’re recognizing whole societies, languages, and how they organize themselves. None of that would be possible without seeing what they’re like outside of survival mode and differentiating between instinct and individual personalities. None of these animals are just mindless beasts to us anymore because of good facilities like these. I think in my generation we remember how it used to be. Visiting roadside zoos and legitimate zoos that were mostly concrete back then. You go back even further and there were human zoos. People and animals chained up in concrete enclosures. I think the original anti-zoo people remember all of that and hype the new generations up to not see the difference between back then and now. They have this all or nothing approach that simply isn’t practical.

@user-zv7cs7xe1x I'd much prefer to be pampered and taken care of in a wide open space all to myself than to potentially starve to death, die to the elements, or get eaten by another animal -- slowly and painfully. I'm good.

@@thetwistedsamuraiWell that is your choice. Does the beluga get a choice?

@@capygeneral Sure, no, but no animal really does.

@@sarina76667 very thoughtful comment. Wish this could be upvoted to the top fr

Yeah there's no need to put them on display just to keep them from going extinct

@@kristinvernon49 where do you think the money for conservation comes from? Majority of Zoos use their money towards conservation of species or to fund government projects

@@beebeenyneeee7692 You really believe people don’t profit from this?

@@alexfx7500 well no fucking shit people profit from this. But unless it's a private zoo the main goal is to raise funds for conservation of animals and government projects like roads and stuff.

@@beebeenyneeee7692 Enough said, it’s irrelevant what they say the money is used for, nature should be left in nature and not pointed and laughed at all day in a tank.

Yeah, that was my two year old squealing at me getting splashed, he loved it!

The exception to that is if they're permanently and irreversibly crippled to the degree of being able to survive in their natural habitat. It can be used for research and still live relatively peacefully

@@Vodka_Reloaded People say human are worse without realising the vast population of sane people. Only few are psychopaths but their news are always in the limelight. Btw thanks for clearing the doubt.

Yea pragya, paul r is right. That's usually the case with aquariums. I know the new england aquarium has rescue turtles

Same unless it's a rescue. This whale looks okay, but I know of places that have animals that are rescued

Then i suggest u don't read the comments then XD

yeah

Lmao thatv thing is getting free food

That makes no sense. What would the beluga do if it wasn't in captivity, swim, swim, swim, hunt, get eaten by a shark or get illegally fished up. In captivity it's safe from all that, gets food, plenty of space and can swim all it wants

Bee Bee Nyne Eee; Yah there’s that, but imagine being stuck in a hospital for the rest of your life. Would you enjoy that? Also, creatures in nature die all the time due to injury and humans are interrupting that natural cycle. So can you really say it’s a good thing?

@@MoonS1337 So you want the animals to die? First we are bad for killing animals, then we are bad for trying to save animals.

Bee Bee Nyne Ee; Animals dying in nature is not the same as humans killing animals.

@@MoonS1337 how is it any different. It's an animal killing another animal for food.

@Blackfish Debunked well then lets stop pollution or ramp up the usage and production of reused materials of all sorts

The whale was born in captivity

It's never been in the ocean

It doesnt know the ocean exists lil bro think before you speak

He is playing though? What proof do u have?

I long for a day when they do not have to be scared to be illegaly hunted by fishermen and threatened to go extinct smh . Seriously please

Then give them ability to breath on land

They are not

How about the poor beluga that's stuck in that tank with all of us staring at it !!! We are the killers we should be ashamed of ourselves 😡😡😡😡

@@sashafierce183This beluga was raised in captivity. It’s at mystic aquariums and they don’t abuse animals like you just assume they do. Releasing it would kill it. It gets free food, no predators, lots of room, gets to play whenever, and it gets to form friendships. If it were to live in the ocean it would starve or be eaten in a week.

Exactly such horrible comments section

No

It ain't imprisonment when the whales like being there

​​​@@deeznuts9886did the beluga tell you? Don't just say it looks happy, their face is like that always. Again i don't know as i didn't study face expression of them.

@@swarnaislam7004 These belugas are not only rescued from corporations that have treated them wrong and are being taken care of with genuine love and care. But you can tell that the beluga (and literally almost every single beluga I have seen come out of mystic aquarium) absolutely loves the attention they get from humans, the splashing is not only for the belugas trying to play with the guy but to make him laugh too, as these belugas love seeing guests happy or laughing. Keep in mind, just because a whale is in an aquarium doesn't mean that it's another SeaWorld situation. The beluga's in mystic aquarium are also unable to be released into the wild as well since they were raised in captivity. I've also seen beluga's in this aquarium reacting to drawings people have made, different types of music (from jazz bands, to even a mariachi band!) You gotta do research behind what mystic aquarium even is before you treat me like a moron good sir.

​​@@deeznuts9886 agree with you in the case where cubs are left alone in the wild or when they are rescuing injured ones. I thought you were supporting this in all circumstances. I have seen many people saying what's wrong in here if they are leading a comfortable life than the wild ones and are being used for "educational purposes", it doesn't matter if they are forcefully captured or breed. It's not upto us to decide to capture a animal just because they are getting eaten in the wild, it is food chain. Sorry if i was being offensive. But i totally respect your opinion given the circumstances. If you don't mind i have a question, do they go through some rehabilitation process?

The poor beluga whale being kept in a small tank doesn't bother you ????

​@@sashafierce183 y should it? There's nothing u can do about it anyways so better shut up

He is not
