@chrisschwan: My son shot this video of “Jack” T137A orca while we were walking along Commencement Bay at Point Defiance Tacoma, WA. It’s receiving millions of views from several social media platforms. …enjoy! #orca #orcas #orcasoftiktok #marineanimals
Dang that drop off is wild for them to be doing that so close to the shore

It was an unbelievable experience to say the least! They say that this doesn’t happen this close to shore…. “Once in a lifetime experience”

I'm so jealous
I grew up in the Tacoma area and have NVR seen orca is real life
they are so many more now and they didn't use to come down to Tacoma in the 90s

That movement sends shock waves through the water which can disorient young seals making them easier prey
