Takara, Kohana, Kasatka & Kayla

I am now at ability to confirm who is pregnant.

Takara:
Takara is NOT pregnant. I stress not. SeaWorld considered Tiki to be pregnant and all was well.  But recent sonograms have shown no sign of a fetus. It is not known whether Takara lost the baby or she just had a false pregnancy. I think the majority of people knew that Takara wasn't pregnant. She was said to be due in December but was still completely flat in images and videos.

Kohana:As you would have guessed, yes Kohana is pregnant. I think everyone knows now looking at her size. So, this adds another inbred, rejected calf to the Loro Parque pod. It can only be a matter of time until someone is moved. Having Kohana constantly popping out calves is not good for her health. It will cause her problems eventually.

Kasatka:
Kasatka is pregnant. Here sonograms have shown a healthy fetus growing inside of her. The father is Kshamenk in Argentina, whose sperm IS liable, since he got Belen pregnant twice. This will mean SeaWorld San Diego will have nine orcas. Someone HAS to be moved. Probably Kalia or Nakai, since they are of no breeding use to SeaWorld San Diego.

Kayla:
Finally, Kayla's situation. Kayla was put onto the breeding list for AI in March this year. However, since Kayla's cycle is abnormal, it is a little bit tricky to get timing right. I have been told that SeaWorld had got hold of Oscar's sperm from Sea World Kamogawa in Japan, so maybe Kayla will get his.

This is all I have for now.

Is Kasatka Pregnant?

The rumour has been going round for a while now that 34 year old Kasatka of SeaWorld San Diego is pregnant, possibly with 23 year old Kshamenk at Mundo Marino in Argentina.

If Kasatka is pregnant, she is said to be due January 2013. I think this is complete and utter crud. Speculation of her size and general behaviour has been circulating. Some say it's just the angle of the lense on the camera, but I genuinely think she is. Here are my reasons:

• Kasatka hasn't had a calf since Kalia, which was in 2004. She is ready for another calf.
• It gives SeaWorld San Diego another reason to move either Nakai or Kalia since they're no use for breeding.

Now, although Tim Zimmermann isn't the most reliable source, what he is proposing makes sense. If Kasatka was impregnated during the summer of last year, she would be due in August this year, and to be honest, recent pictures and footage make it look like she's going to pop any second.
