Some Scientists Are Trying To Teach A Killer Whale How To Speak (Video)

Are we really at a point where we need to be teaching animals to speak to us in our own language? Apparently so, because a team of scientists is trying to teach a 14-year-old killer whale named Wikie how to speak. Wikie doesn’t really pronounce words, but she’s definitely imitating what the trainer says, although sometimes the noises that she makes definitely sound like farts. So that’s something, right?

Just more proof that everyone thinks farts are funny.
