14-Year-Old Orca Whale Learns To Say "Hello" And A Lot More!

I believe that orcas in the wild would be able to pick up human words as easily as wikie because it's a part of who they are. In the article it states that " Wikie, of course, does not understand what she is saying. She is merely copying the sounds to obtain the reward that follows every attempt."
