The captive Orca poses a danger to his captors, but it would be a rare set of circumstances that resulted in an attack on a member of the public. Orcas provide a public benefit, evidenced by the tens of thousands of people who visit SeaWorld every year to see them. Orcas are caged wild animals, similar to any zoo, aquarium, or circus animal, who have been neither bred nor domesticated for cohabitation with humans. Orcas are owned and caged only by those with the training and resources to handle them.
None of this is true of pit bulls.

Umm, don’t have any serious disagreement with your comments - other than perhaps you should not be quite so affrimative about the skills of those handling Orcas, “Orcas are owned and caged only by those with the training and resources to handle them”, as the facts speak otherwise.
