Wikie is a female orca born in 2001 at Marineland Antibes in France. She became globally known in 2018 after researchers taught her to mimic human speech sounds. Using her blowhole, Wikie was able to imitate words like “hello,” “bye-bye,” and even her trainer’s name, Amy, and could count to three. Scientists believe she may be the first orca ever recorded successfully mimicking human words, showing just how intelligent and vocally flexible killer whales can be.
