On November 18, 1961, an orca was seen swimming alone in Newport Harbor, California. A team from Marineland of the Pacific rushed to the harbor to try and capture the whale. If they succeeded, Wanda would be the first orca ever to be brought in alive. | On November 18, 1961, an orca was seen swimming alone in Newport Harbor, California.
