Ava the Pilot Whale Headbutting the Glass [PLEASE READ DESCRIPTION]

Описание: Right... I really debated with myself whether to publish this or not. NOT because of censorship/hiding it etc. but because of the sheer amount of personal hate and abuse that I received from BOTH sides last time I posted something like this. I have left the comments open for now, but any personal attacks will receive a permanent ban from this channel. You have been warned.

| Explanation |

These clips were shot over a period of about 30 minutes on September 2nd 2018 before a Dine session. When I arrived at the underwater viewing windows at about 11:30 they were doing some sort of gating session with the Pilot Whales. Moving two of them (they were too far away for me ID) at a time into the small pool adjacent to G Pool (this pool) closing the gate, then opening the gate again and reuniting the group - they did this several times. Once this ended, Ace and Ava were left in G pool whilst Fredi and Piper were in the covered pool. Ava seemed agitated by this. As the first two clips show she hit her head on the bottom of the pool a couple of times and then in the third clip she strikes one of the windows quite hard. In the last clip she did this again right in front of me, however, this did not seem as hard as the previous three, and afterwards she can be seen interacting with a guest - so I'm not sure if the final one was more... playful/looking for a reaction as the guy had been interacting with her prior to the clip I've shared? I'm not an expert by any means I'm just sharing my observation. These clips were filmed over about 30 minutes, so she wasn't doing this constantly, and in between was interacting with Ace and swimming around mostly normally.
