I saw Tilikum at SeaWorld in 1997 and the memory has stayed with me. He was in his pool and I stood next to the underwater window and watched him for about 15 minutes. He swam past me many times, just a few feet away on the other side of the glass. I have never seen such a magnificent and awe inspiring animal so close to me, and almost certainly never will again.
I'm sure tilikum is starved !!! He never closes his mouth and always pleading for food .... even Dawn's death also caused due to that I guess he was underfed and probably he was unwell too on that day
The last time I went to Sea World Shamu was still alive. I miss that whale so much. So many special moments of my childhood I spent with that beautiful creature. I loved Shamu so much.
yup same here. i love the fact trainer Joe asked Tilikum to do a side breach, i mean usually he just does splashes, i love the side breach, the alien and a regular bow from Tilikum, anything else other than splashing people.
I miss what my family has always called "the seaworld shuffle". They do it during dolphin days, touch the sky, One Ocean, and they did it during LUTN. hahaha
Zoos, aquariums, and circuses are great places for the public to contact nature and teach us the importance of protecting the earth. Lots of animal rights activists failed to recognize that good institutions did lots of great things for animals, such as providing medical care, enough food, and breeding program. Lots of self claimed animal rights people only demonize those organizations, and I think it is very unfair for people working there. Lots of people working there has devoted themselves, and they do love their animals. Wild animals will die if they are sick, because no one will provide them medical care. And in lean times, lots of animals will die from dehydration and starvation. Animal rights activists failed to recognize nature is not a place free of violence. The killing in the wild is extremely excruciating for the prey. And if you had learned animal behavior, you will know some animals will kill to eliminate competition or out of hatred for other species. Elephants and African Buffaloes will kill lion cubs, because they hate them. Male lions and male tigers will kill Cubs they don't know in order to mate with females sooner. Most animals are definitely not free in the wild. They have territories, and they are confined to that place because their neighbors will fight with them if they move out. Lots of the fights are very violent and even bloody, such as the fight between large predators. Most animal rights activist portray the wild as a peaceful paradise. That is the biggest lie on earth. The jungle law will not sympathies animals in trouble. The weaker one will be bullied or even killed in the fight for survival. And nature is not free of human influence at all. Most wild places are constantly under the threat of human activities. Lots of endangered species were ruthlessly killed by poachers. Wild animals are constantly killed by local villagers in developing countries. Not only due to poaching, but also because of conflicts with human. Herbivores such as elephants were killed because they eat and stampede crops, while predators were killed because they kill livestocks and even humans. Living in the wild is not happy or safe at all. And it is very hard to survive under those threats. The theory of animal rights groups are not based on science. They are not true conservationists at all. They only exaggerate the darker side, but they failed to realize wild place is no better than the places they demonize. The true conservationists will stress the importance of protecting nature, habitat, and saving the endangered species. The efforts of animal rights activists are not on those important things to save nature. Lots of zoos and circuses actually have bred lots of endangered species, such as Asian elephants, tigers, pandas, etc. Scientifically speaking, those organizations are helping the future of animals. The animal rights activists can achieve none of that. They keep talking but they did nothing to save nature. It is a great pity that animal rights activists are demonizing institutions that not only truly help animals, and conducting research that deepening our understanding of animals and nature. Those institutions has not only entertained the public, but educated us getting more knowledge of nature and remind us the importance to value so many important things. Wake up, don't believe in fake science or illogical allegations made by radical people!
After Tilikum Killed Dawn, hes been a pretty cool whale. Besides, it was actually dawns fault. She spooked the whales, and that is how she died. They attacked her soo..... Ye
It was not Dawns fault. How on earth could she "spook" whales? Dawn was an experienced trainer of 16 years and would never do anything to put the whales or herself in danger.
