    • I know that many people think sea world is cool and educational but I would just like to tell you some things. Sea World has has more than 43 orcas die because of them. Shamu the origanal died 35 years ago, at age six, in a tank so small, it was illegal. In the wild, orcas usually live anywhere from 50-100 years of age. In captivity, thier lifespan is about 10 sad years. Many of them, including Shamu, were brutally captured from the wild, from their loving families. (In the wild, killer whales stay with their families for their entire lives, only leaving to mate, and then they return) Marine parks, like sea world used bombs and explosives to chase baby orcas into coves. then they'd pick the ones they wanted for their shows. Many animals drowned during the capture and to cover up for it, Sea World hauled the bodies aboard, slit open their bellies, filled them with rocks and lead, tied anchors to their tails, and sunk them. The captured animals were/are forced to do unnatural circus tricks for small chunks of dead fish. Many times they have no acess to shade, no rocks to itch on, and no other whales to talk to. They are forced to breed at very young ages and kept in tiny tanks, when not doing shows. they become bored, depressed, and angered. In conclusion, please help save a beautiful species by not going to sea world or any other park with orcas anymore. thanks so much.
