Isn’t it about time we stopped pretending that Sea World and similar animal entertainment ventures were doing something good for “conservation” or “education?”
Ex-SeaWorld Trainers Expose Orca Abuse | PETA.org: Two former trainers at SeaWorld have released a report that includes firsthand information about the stress that killer whales endure in captivity—stress that the ex-trainers feel led to the deaths of at least two SeaWorld employees.
We see this time and time again. Animals in circuses turn and attack their “trainers.” Animals in marine “parks” like Sea World attack theirs. We are torturing these animals and depriving them of their natural lives for our entertainment – nothing more.
