What every new parent assumes will happen when you take a stroller into a park alone.

This is the most epic wild life I've seen in a long time. That one Orca casually grabbing the calf is insane.

[Simon-pyvz]

I think we don’t realise how raw and amazing this clip is

[intheshellify]

That's not kidnapping, that's lunch.

[lktzu]

Orcas are awesome. Their intellect and problem solving skills are even better than many humans. Imagine the intelligence it takes to think out this strategy. Wow.

Whale Baby: So, where's the candy? You said there'd be candy!
Orca: Kid... you ARE the candy.

[ilyasVa]

These orcas has a mind of a serial killer

[Trenegeut]

They kidnapped the little one, painted them into orca colors and said now you will be one of us, we are going to teach you how to be a real killer whale

[zakaryloreto]

Saddest thing I’ve seen today, but that is nature.

[euhjvzo]

Kidnap is a good euphemism for what they did.

[JohnM-jmmm]

They literally kidnapped it
Wooow
Such intelligence oh my
These new drones footages are giving us. Completely new understanding on wild life especially the sea wild life
The orcas are at the top of the sea food chain

One of the most unbelievable orca hunting sequence I ever watched on a David Attenborough series the others that surprised me was a sequence where a orca hunts young elephant seals in rock pool and the others would be orcas wave washing seals of the ice for frozen planet and orcas hunting bowhead whales for the first time on film

[JacquelynFomson-mfxp]

The orcs are literally like mafia of the sea 😂

[PaulyWally]

The Orcas: Hey kid, I have candy in my slipstream.

[skorpnikusclaw]

02:00 The most beautiful and tragic narrative sequence I have ever seen in a documentary!

[lajuan]

I had to watch this several times..I am in awe ! The orcas intelligence is bonkers ! Wow !

[arielleluana]

I got goosebumps both times I watched. The soundtrack & narration really emphasizes how diabolical this is.

[againstodds]

Its a real kidnapping😨 After reading the title I thought it to be an exaggeration

[bornjusticerule]

That. Was. 🤙🏿🔱 Adding to my favorite playlist NOW. Yet another PROLIFIC moment captured by BBC and narrated by Sir Attenborough that reminds me once again why Orcas are 1 of my favorite mammals on Our Planet. They're ABSOLUTELY Brilliant thinkers and Astonishing Hunters.

Part of me hopes the orca just asked for a ransom, but I get the feeling that's not how this ended 😥
