About Kyuquot (SWT-OO-9377)

Kyuquot, also known as Ky, was the first calf sucessfully born at Sealand of the Pacific. Several months before his birth, the orcas were involved in an incident, in which a trainer was killed. Soon the park was closed and Ky and his mother Haida II* were transferred to SeaWorld San Antonio. Ky was really close to his mother and often stuck close on her side. After her death in 2001 he became depressed but he did eventually bond with other orcas but often shows his dominance over them.

Kyuquot is a really good performer and knows many spectacular types of behaviours. He underwent a growth spurt the past years and but despite his weight, he easily lift his 8,000 lb body completely out of the water. Ky has done waterworks with his trainers, but due to an incident in 2004, those were stopped. He can be moody at times; he likes to refuse behaviours, that could be the reason why waterworks weren’t reintroduced to him.


 Name Meaning & Blood Type:

- Kyuquot means "Land of many winds" in Nootka
- Pronunciation of Kyuquot: KY-yoo-cut
- Blood Type: 100% Icelandic
