A California marine biologist has been indicted by a federal grand jury for feeding killer whales. Nancy Black, who also runs a whale-watching business, video-taped orcas feeding on pieces of a gray whale that had been attacked by killer whales, but cut a hole in the blubber and tied it to her dinghy with a rope. “The federal government says that’s like feeding the bears in Yosemite,” said Black’s lawyer. “You’ve got to be kidding me. We’re not bringing in Twinkies and moving them into cars; this is what they are eating.” Black is also accused of altering the video tape and lying to officials by saying it was the original.
