I highly recommend watching the movie “Whale Rider” http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0298228/

It’s important for people to know that one of these animals killed itself by continuously ramming its head against the side of the pool. As big as these pools are they are like being permanently confined to a large living room for these massive creatures. They are highly intelligent and can snap at any time.

David, wild animals can never be domesticated or trained. It’s sad that Tillikum killed, several times no less. Many people seem to forget that animals don’t exist for our entertainment. Not to mention that we kill and eat so many of them.

This animal should not be euthanized. It’s not like a 12 ton killer whale applied for a job as a entertainer at SeaWorld and then killed someone. However, I’ve read that the main value behind Tilikum is that he is a great breeder . That is what he should do for the rest of his life and never interact with trainers again.

It’s unfortunate this happened but the whale can’t be released from captivity and that’s the price to pay for raising an animal for entertainment purposes.

Willis, thanks for the heads up. The CNN article mentioned only one previous killing by the same whale.
