Through the making of “Blackfish,” a movie about the entrapment of orca whales (part of the dolphin family), dolphin psychologists and neurologists have been studying the effects of tight enclosures on the orca’s brain chemistry. By implanting electrodes in the mind of the orca, these scientists are able to see the electrical chemistry in the brain of the dolphin. The brains of the recently captured sea inhabitants when compared to the brains of those long held in captivity show a significant difference.
Many plausible theories have been established by scientists as to what happens. Some believe that it is a normal change that occurs with age. Others believe it is the farmed fish that trainers have been feeding them. However, with the occurrence of more deaths by orcas in recent years, one scientist, Albanu Hariut, posed an interesting idea. Instead of compiling a list of physiological changes, Hariut started to listen to what the orcas were saying in their free time.
By creating a program to record the sound vibrations in the water, Hariut saw the increase in waves between the old orcas and new orcas. Like humans, orcas learn from experience and have a highly intellectual language. Hariut believes the elder orcas are passing their experiences in the tanks down to the recently captured orcas. Since living in a tank would be horrible, Hariut believes a rebellion has been started and that is why there have been more orca attacks. Hariut believes the strategy of the orcas is to surprise the victims so that it looks like an accident. The surprise attacks keep the trainers believing that it is a random occurrence. Furthermore, Hariut seems to have been able to decode some of the sounds discovering that all of the attacks are ordered of the Grand Orca Poombah. Hariut describes Poombah as a god to the orcas. Poombah uses the planned attacks to slowly show their dominance as the top mammal.
Although this theory has not been accepted as the truth, many scientists are leaning towards the theory. With the release of “Blackfish” in theaters and on DVD, a huge societal movement is occurring. Huge lawsuits against Sea World and other water zoos are in progress.
However, most environmental scientists are not part of the lawsuits, creating a new theory that people are just trying to get free money. These lawsuits have proven an environmental scientist’s theory that people really have not been part of the Green Movement but rather are trying to make money. The scientists describe the Green Movement as a way to help improve the condition of our earth and the living species. However, when the general public is questioned about the Green Movement, each person talks about the color of money and whether or not there are ways to make fast money.
Through all this, orca dolphins have proven humanity is doomed and death by envious greed will occur sooner than planned by human psychologists. By losing contact with the purity of nature, humans are stuck in their world of ignorance. However, few have developed a connection to the orca dolphins believing that they can interpret the sounds from each orca. Mr. Dr. Professor Christopherson has interpreted one orca who said, “Humanity will perish from their own disasters, Mother Earth will cover Her cuts and the world will evolve into greatness.”
