A New Zealand mom got to watch as a pod of orcas, or “killer whales” as they’re sometimes called, swam around near her six-year-old daughter while the young lass tried to learn to water ski, Stuff reports. Fortunately, the animals are not considered a danger to humans in the wild.
Natalie Kepa and her family and friends had gone to the calm waters of Kumutoto Bay for some water skiing (it’s summer there) on Sunday, and Natalie’s six-year-old daughter, Stella, decided to try her hand at the sport. However, the young lady’s first attempt at water skiing was short-lived, as someone on board the boat that was pulling her almost immediately noticed something in the water.
“I’ve just seen a big black shadow under the water,” the boat’s driver said, as he pulled the craft over to a safe place.
