Not good news for the future of killer whales.
And that will finish off Sea World.
Boy, THAT will draw a crowd. /sarc
Interesting that pre-born humans rank much lower on the SJW scale than some fat sea mammals.
> displays focused on conservation.
Oooh! That sounds exciting. Hope they have enough room for all the crowds!
And to think, fifty five years ago the TV show SEA HUNT with Lloyd Bridges, suggested that Killer Whales should be all wiped off the planet.
Some woman’s husband got eaten by a Killer Whale. Bridges later managed to kill it with an explosive headed spear or whale gun.
Not an “animal rights” fanatic; but it would be OK with me
for animals to be left alone in the wild, the environment
where they belong. Have visited zoos all my life; but
seeing big cats caged & becoming mentally unbalanced by
the confinement is sad to me.
"In 2016, SeaWorld admitted that it had been sending its employees to pose as activists to spy on animal rights organization PETA. Following an investigation by an outside law firm, SeaWorld's Board of Directors directed management to end the practice."
They said they had stopped capturing the animals in the wild 30 years ago.
I don't really understand why captive breeding was considered wrong. I doubt the killer whales objected to it. Who's going to break the news to the male killer whales?
Yeah, I'd pay money to see that. /s
They just announced they are going out of business.
Keeping a killer whale in a tank is like keeping a horse in a 20’ x 20’ stall its entire life. There is nothing conservative about keeping animals unnaturally confined.
...falling on the heals of B&B Circus stopping its Elephant Acts.
Well, we'll have those memories and videos.
I don’t have much use for Sea World. Whale watching in the ocean was much more fun for me than the Sea World show.
I don’t care for most zoos in our country either. The National Zoo in DC is in terrible condition and should be shut down.
Think of it from the whales’ point of view. Captivity for life, and no sex.
That’s great.so we can use the tank as a prison for hitlary.
What is SJW?
I really don’t care about Sea World or their animals, but it’s the same people who have chased elephants out of the Bronx Zoo, which elephants brought so much happiness to my childhood.
We have to put an end to society’s deference to the SJW phenomenon.
So, let me understand this business model.
“Our attendance is down, what should we do?”
“Let’s get rid of the main thing people come to see.”
Do I have that right?
Too bad someone hadn’t successfully banned Japan from killing the over 300 whales in the Antarctic. Sea World and the Killer Whales is nothing.
