Very well done MV/animation. The orcas are all drawn so well and so accurately that you can tell exactly who they are without a single name being said. Corky is truly a sweetheart despite going through so much during her life.

it might just be me but animating the trauma and tragedy of real, living animals like its a cool, cinematic warrior cats map is weird imo... the animation and artwork is absolutely stunning but this is not the educational, respectful representation of these animals lives that it should be and the response to the blacklash in the comments on the tilikum animation was just not it. sometimes this community forgets that these are not fictional characters and it really shows, i hope they do better in the future and learn.

It does weird me out a bit for them to animate Kandu's death like that, especially knowing this animators track record with their orca animations.

In an animation they did about Tilikum they animated what happened to Dawn, which for obvious reasons is such a horrid thing to do.

Theyve been notoriously weird about drawing trainer deaths and then doubling down when people called them out.
