XD He's such a nerd. I never knew orca's enjoyed looking at their reflection as much as some humans. It's a bit like my dog with mirrors, but he tries to bite his reflection...

I remember seeing mirrors being used at VanAqua and the orca's seemed to really enjoy them, along with the time period when they played vocalizations of other orca's and then they would communicate back.

She was the one who was the most interactive with me when I was last there. Definitely a cute girl.

Athena LOVES mirrors! Strangely enough, Ike usually doesn't XD Just that one day, Athena ignored it and Ike went crazy. They switched personalities lol!

He fits in wonderfully, is very active and playful. He and Athena aren't BEST FRIENDS but they get along well and he gets lots of love from his trainers

Oh, they get along great, but they aren't amazingly close. They perform together and sometimes play together, just usually they go off and do their own thing.

Yeah, he's ignored my mirror every time I went except this time, for some reason lol. It's usually Athena who likes it, but this time he went nuts XD
