Can whales talk like humans?

This week it was proven that other animals are just as curious as we are. In San Diego a white whale named Noc sounded like he was trying to mimic humans. The only time he tries was when humans were near him in the water. Words are not actually coming out of his mouth, but its the sounds that we would make. Its another step closer to other species understanding us and vise-versa. If you watch the video its pretty cool to see. He is being closely watched by a team of marine biologists.
