In 2006, Unna gave birth to a stillborn female calf. The calf may have been inbred since she only lived with relatives at the time, unless she had been artificially inseminated. The father has never been announced. Unna has not been pregnant since but often cares for her younger half sister Sakari who was born in 2010. Unna has done very good with Sakari. Since Takara arrived in 2009, Unna is kept separated from the males when she is cycling.

Unna is a dominant orca, and will put the less dominant orcas in their place. Unna performed waterworks before they were stopped in 2010 and she has never shown aggression towards her trainers.

-Unna is the dominant orca at the park though Takara is dominant as well. Although she is good at the role, she can also be somewhat aggressive to the more submissive orcas. Unna performed waterworks before they were stopped in 2010 and she has never shown aggression towards her trainers.
