Wikie
Female orca (born 2001)
Wikie (born 1 June 2001) is a female Orca who lives at the Marineland of Antibes in Antibes, France. Her mother was Sharkane and her father was Kim II. Her elder sister is Shouka and her elder brother was Inouk.
In 2009, Wikie was artificially inseminated with semen from Ulises, a male orca who currently lives at SeaWorld San Diego in California. The artificial insemination resulted in the birth of her first calf (Moana) on March 16, 2011. Her calf was the first orca to be born through artificial insemination in Europe. Wikie gave birth to her second calf (Keijo) on November 20, 2013. Keijo's father was Wikie's half-brother Valentin (1996–2015).
