Animal Rights Tilikum was the first owned whale in the Sealand of the Pacific aquarium that was isolated from the other orcas in his own pool; Tilikum was taken from his natural habitat as an adult, and suddenly was forced to make a dramatic change to being in an isolated pool. Because of this dramatic change, it caused Tilikum stress, depression from being alone, and anxiety from being in an enclosed tank instead of having a free amount of miles to roam.
