However, they can be dangerous but can still have a playful personality with a lot of intelligence (Kirby, 3). Unfortunately, these large animals are in tanks that keep them restricted from returning to the ocean, thus placing themselves and their trainers in danger. Orcas have been known for attacking their trainers, like Dawn Brancheau in 2010. She was pulled into the water by a Killer Whale named…

Fischeck spoke about the “fighting” that occurs at SeaWorld. "You'd be diving at the bottom of the tanks and you'd find these long strips of what looked like black rubber, and it was skin they'd peeled off each other. We had divers take whale skin home to their families all the time as souvenirs…” While she was cleaning their pools, she would see the orcas fighting with each other. They would often have rake marks or other injuries caused by the fighting. Based on her experiences, Fischbeck…

Aquarium Environment In beginning, the ethical issues related to the containment of aquatic animals in for-profit aquariums will be examined in this study. Cowperthwaite’s film Blackfish (2014) illustrates the ethical issues of containing orca whales, at Sea world, which led to the death of a animal trainer in its training facilities. More importantly, the ethical issue of monetary profit from using orcas as these shows defines the unethical use of aquatic animals that may not be safe for…

their respective environments. The shallow seas cover 8% of the oceans representing hundreds of miles before the sea floor reaches the darkness. Nevertheless, it accounts for a great abundance of marine life. The documentary begins with the humpback whales as they arrive at the equator. Here the calf finds the perfect environment to be nurtured and strengthened because of the warm waters with few predators. During the five months of growth, the mother relies on fat storage for survival because…

Being in a pool and training with the orca, the trainer starts gasping for air and scrambles to get out of the situation, feeling the orcas teeth going into her body. This was the first scene of Blackfish, a movie made by producer Gabriela Cowperthwaite on July 19, 2013. The film goes into detail as far as to say keeping orcas in captivity is wrong. The movie talks about the orcas in general, but Tilikun is one of the main orcas they talk about throughout the film. The reason why they talk…

This species is divided into three subspecies: the Pacific walrus, the Atlantic walrus, and the Laptev walrus.

Even if SeaWorld has not actually caught and removed an orca from the ocean, it is still wrong what they are doing. The pools at SeaWorld are not big enough to breed the orcas safely. After the…
