Unna is a 16 year old female orca who lives at SeaWorld San Antonio. Her father is Tilikum and her mother is Katina. She was born on December 27, 1996 at SeaWorld Orlando.

Growing up, Unna spent a lot of time with Katina, Kalina, Taku and Tuar. Several births took place as Unna was growing up in Orlando, and after Ikaika was born in 2002, she was often by her mother's side assisting her. Several months after his birth though, she was transferred to Texas where she has remained since.

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.

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.
