Back in the 70's and 80's we heard of numerous American protests of whale killings by the Japanese.  But, no one complained about whale killings by Eskimos in Alaska.  Then in the 90's and after 2000, we still heard of whale killings, but seeems the protesters have dwindled, or, the media doens't cover it anymore.\nAs far as one respondant is concerned, about steer (beef) killings, well, let me just say that the steer are replenished, while the whales might be exterminated.  Whale may be a part of the Japanese diet, but, are there whale farms to help repopulate the whales?

Actually, no it doesn't. The sound you hear is actually vibrations in your ear that your brain converts to noise. So if there are no living creatures with ears and brains around to 'hear' it, it does not make a noise...just some air vibrations going all over the place.

Try searching for nature sounds.

May I have two?! I am lucky enough to live in a house which faces Woodland and I am visited by Roe Deer everyday. They are so beautiful, and I absolutely love the majestic quality of whales in the Wild.

Yes, it is called a wolphin. Part common bottlenosed dolphin, part false killer whale. I believe. Here's a link to be sure.

I've seen a killer whale attack a juvenile grey whale in the Monterey Bay.  But I don't  think it was because they were Hungy\n\nIn Argentina I saw them beach them selve's going after sea lions.  But I think its mostly for sport.  they would take about 2000 ft from the shoreline and toss them like Volley balls in the air.  They are really cool creatures.

We thought we'd read somewhere that giraffes did not have voice boxes and weren't capable of producing any vocalizations, but we decided to search the Net and see if this was true. We typed "giraffes make noise" into the Yahoo! search box and looked to see what we could rustle up. \nAlthough we did find a page or two that claimed the animal makes no noise at all, we found many more zookeepers, veterinarians, and other animal experts who debunked this popular misconception. On a page from Discovery Magazine.com, a kids' magazine devoted to science, a young reader echoed your question. The resident expert consulted with a zoo vet and learned that although giraffes are generally quiet animals, they can make a bleating sound, similar to that of a young calf or sheep. \n\nA page from the Indianapolis Zoo confirmed this fact, and stated that giraffes can also make a "low, fluttering sound." Yet another zoo source says that while giraffes don't often make noise, "they are capable of frighteningly loud grunts and roars if they feel threatened." \n\nApparently, the belief that giraffes make no noise is simply a tall tale -- the animals can make a number of sounds. \n\nIf you are looking for some fascinating, and true, giraffe facts, here are a few: \n\nGiraffes are the tallest land animal and can grow up to 18 feet tall. \nThe giraffe's neck can be 6 feet long, and its tongue can stretch 20 inches. \nGiraffes give birth standing up, so the baby giraffe enters the world with a drop to the ground. \nEach animal's coat has a unique pattern, much like human fingerprints. \nAnd we're not stretching the truth!

Actually, I can watch whales (mostly California gray whales) from my office window (near Avila Beach, California). Right now the Pacific is flat but I do not see any spouts. The mothers have pretty much moved north with their children by now. The males already are gone. \n\nI saw a mother snout up and then breech. That was two weeks ago. Awesome sight!\n\nLast fall a friend of mine and his wife were out of Santa Barbara in a 20ft cabin cruiser. A gray came up and snouted over the front of their boat. Crushed the trim. Then it came back and the tail actually flipped up and hit the guy in the chest. Broke some ribs and tore him up with barnacles. I would have said the couple were just high or something but no arguing with the boat damage and his injuries.\n\nTake a whale watching cruise if you can. It is something life-changing.

1.)No one knows for sure how long killer whales live. \n\n2.) For unknown reasons, killer whales have a high calf mortality rate in some areas of the world.  In the Pacific Northwest, for example, 43% of all calves die in the first six months.  In other killer whale populations, calf mortality may be as high as 50% during the first year. \n\n3.)  Long-term studies will ultimately answer this question.  By counting growth layers in teeth, scientists find that killer whales in the North Atlantic may live at least 35 years.  Studies are still refining this method of aging. \n\n\nResearchers can estimate a killer whale's age by examining a sliced section of tooth and counting growth layer groups.\n\n\n4.)  Scientists in the Pacific Northwest estimate life expectancies by using information derived from field observations that began in the 1970s.  These scientists believe that if a killer whale survives the first six months, a female's life expectancy is 50 years and a male's is 30 years. \n\n5.)  With continued research, it is likely that differences in longevity will be found in killer whale populations around the world.

blackpowder or gunpowder exploding makes the cracle sound. they just put it in smaller sections so it wont be as loud

Because they are quite vicious predators in the ocean.  They don't just kill everything they see, and they're not known to kill humans, but they are definitely at the top of their food chain.  The Sea World info on them says, "they are the largest predator of warm-blooded animals ever known.  Fishes, squids, seals, sea lions, walruses, birds, sea turtles, otters, penguins, cetaceans (both mysticete and odontocete) [[this means dolphins and other whales]], polar bears, reptiles, and even a moose -- they have all been found in the stomach contents of killer whales."  Have you ever seen a video of an orca killing a seal?  If you have, you'll understand why someone would call them a killer whale.  In one video I've seen, it was almost like a cat playing with its prey.  If not, the link below has a video.
