    • @FeezFBaby
      @FeezFBaby 4 місяці тому +2

      He didn’t snapped for no reason. There was a few signs on why he did it. I mean he did a trick like she wanted him to do but she missed the cue & didn’t reward him so he got angry. And if u knew how they treated him? I don’t blame him for killing anybody really. He was tortured. He was locked up in a pretty small pool with 2 other females who attacked repeatedly & he has marks (fresh & old) scars all over his body. They did him so wrong. The way they captured him & separated him from his mom & pod was messed up too. I mean they’re super smart animals so Tilikum always had that anger in the back of his mind. R.I.P. to her but he didn’t killed her, Seaworld did. No one should’ve working with him in the 1st place.

    I encourage you guys to watch “blackfish”, a documentary about the dark side of sea world and their orca show. Seaworld captures whales and rip them away from thier mothers and at the end of the capturing many are dead. When the babies are born there they are also ripped away causing emotional trauma to the mothers and children. Less than 1% of orcas have flopped over dorsal fins and yet almost every orca in captivity does. The documentary includes a lot more and it’s really important to spread the word on what really happens

    Tilikum was neglected at Sealand as I understand and beaten up by the two female orcas there. Six years of neglect will take it's toll in every way.
    It doesn't matter how hard we try, it'll be impossible to meet their needs. A wild orca eats 500lbs of fish,seals, sharks,rays, whales etc. They live in strong,stable family units and have adaptive hunting tactics according to their prey. They include:intentional stranding, passive listening, synchronized swimming, wave hunting etc. Even stealing fish from fishing lines.They teach these tactics to their young from about 8 weeks old. Orcas cover up to 100 miles per day;swimming,courting,hunting, playing and so on

      But I am here to tell you that they don’t get feed once a day the actually get
      Feed 7 times a day (not including when they do shows)
      They get feed large amounts of fish and other things at a time like
      Octopus
      Squid
      We also do not abuse them or harm them in any way they sometimes lash out
      Because they want a treat like a fish or Two
      That is why bad stuff like this happens in the beginnings of the shows
      Because they have not gotten a fish yet because they have not done a trick.
      Also when they are not doing a show we are scrubbing them and Massaging
      Them!
      Also during this time they get feed they don’t have to do tricks for these treats!

      @@chrismora9049 I’m very glad you asked that question!
      Blackfish has 70% lies in it to make SeaWorld look bad. They said there is no record of an orca attack in the wild when they dang well knew there was 1 incident of an orca accidentally bit a man/woman.
      They said SeaWorld “starves their orcas” but this is in fact not true. In Behind the Scenes of Believe, a trainer said if the orca does a wrong trick, they give them positive reinforcement, they either tell them to do the trick again, or get a treat (fish, salmon, rub downs), but SeaWorld, especially Dawn, would never do anything to hurt the orcas or put them in danger.
      SeaWorld separates the orcas for a reason. In the documentary, these so called “trainers” had said Tiki (Takara, we pro capts like to call them by their nicknames) was moved from Kassy (Kasatka, again, we pro capts call the orcas by their nickname) at a young age. In fact, that is not true at all. Tiki was moved at 12 years old from Kassy.
      Another important thing, Blackfish had some trainers who were fired by SeaWorld. I will get back to you on that.
      There is more that I will share. Please, ask me anything.

    This was explained in school. Don't ask why we watched things about Tilikum I don't know eather. They said he didn't hear well. When he did something right the woman took a fish and said "Good job" (or something like that) But he didn't hear anything. He thought he did something wrong. He became "mad" and more like frustrated. Then he just snapped her leg and she died. It wasn't his fould. He shouldn't never been there at SeaWorld. He should have been in the REAL sea.
    Sorry for my bad english...
    And I need to say that he is an animal. They don't always understand things like this. The video what we watched told also that he (Tilikum) could want to just play. But he is too big. The result is that someone dies. What if Tilikum wanted just play with that woman?

We all like to buy fancy clothes, ignoring the fact that it is children who made them for us in poor countries for the price of a cup of coffee. Or as we wear our lovely fur coats, we turn a blind eye to the brutal suffering that those animals had to endure to make that. Or when we buy that beef from Brazil, turning a blind eye to the fact that by buying that beef we are destroying the earths lungs. This is what is wrong with the world. Open your eyes.

Did it suffer less because it had a different name than the one used in the film? Did it hurt less because the orca in the footage wasn't the one they were talking about? Seaworld has told more lies then anyone can count, and blackfish is the fake one? Blackfish got some details wrong, that's all. Seaworld lies on purpose, to make people think those orcas are truely in the best place possible, they lie to protect their cashflow. That's a lot worse than getting some details wrong, while trying to make people see what's wrong about keeping a giant, migratory mammal in a puddle. Not to mention the fact that seaworld keeps them in artificial pods, away from the extended FAMILY they are wired to live with. When you have to drug an animal for the majority of its life, to keep it "healthy" and relatively sane, it's obvious those animals can't cope with captivity.

Most very intelligent and socially complex animals don’t do well in captivity like this, pretty likely that his mental health was deteriorating at that point, I’d say it’s surprising it took that long, there are multiple orcas that died after just a few days of being captured, many also hitting their head on walls… (there’s a video of Lolita doing just that, and the first ever captured orca, Wanda, also died in just three days, right after doing that exact same thing, too)
