Award-winning Author and Film Producer Dr. Randall Eaton offers
a Lecture on
Orca: Ruler of the Seas
Imagine a highly intelligent species that rules its world without making war. Imagine that the females, though 25% smaller than males, govern their societies, the most stable known. Imagine a 7-ton predator with a brain larger than ours that does not attack us even in self-defense. Imagine why it is the only creature ever described by any human society as “One step above god.” Imagine the orca, a giant dolphin, tame to humans during capture. They communicate via sound holograms, the most advanced system known. With sonar, the equivalent of X-ray vision, orcas live in totally honest societies.
