[vybzinc]

Never go to SeaWorld brehs trust me on this. You will learn why if you catch this documentary called the "Blackfish". Good flick and informative. Exploitation of Orcas at its finest.



Tilikum for tearing that azz up.

I thought this was a really good documentary and it was really well received so it shocked me that it got snubbed by the Oscars in the Best Documentary race.
All of these places that try to turn killer whales into trained monkeys need to be burned to the ground.

Tilikum was Black Excellence, white people turned him into a minstrel show and he started bodying them with very precise calculation.

Yeah...very good documentary even though it was a bit one sided. Even if the other side was a coroporate entity, and I'm sure they declined to speak, you need to have someone playing devil's advocate just to balance things out. Still, it's a very interesting movie and something everyone should see.

Yea I saw this documentary and it was great...fukk Seaworld basically and the one "yes man" they had on there. How you gonna say that a killer whale in captivity is living a better lifestyle than in the wild, where they are meant to be

Seaworld declines all interviews and only gives written statements cuz they know they full of shyt. In my post I mentioned the one guy on there saying that Orcas had no problems and were fine in captivity which is horseshyt breh.

Sea world's response to film critics, they blame the whales behavior on bullying.

Bullying: In its letter to film critics about Blackfish, SeaWorld challenges the implication that unlike killer whales in the wild, killer whales in zoos or parks—and specifically Tilikum, the whale involved in Dawn Brancheau's death—are routinely bullied by other whales. The word "bullying" is meaningless when applied to the behavior of an animal like a killer whale. Whales live in a social setting with a dominance hierarchy, both at SeaWorld and in the wild. They express dominance in a variety of ways, including using their teeth to "rake" other whales, in the open ocean as well as in parks.

Tilikum, for starters, was not just a whale involved in Dawn Brancheau's death. Tilikum was the whale that killed her. "Bullying" is not meaningless when applied to the behavior of killer whales. "Bullying" is the correct term to use whenever one animal "in a social setting with a dominance hierarchy" (whether that hierarchy is orca, wolf, chimp, or human) asserts dominance over another. The term, indeed, is used only in those circumstances. And there is an obvious difference between the bullying and tooth-raking by wild whales in the ocean and tooth-raking by captive whales in a tank. Every killer whale expert I consulted, when I recited this SeaWorld claim, laughed sourly and pointed out the obvious: In the ocean a whale can get away.

I went to seaworld twice in a year span the first time seeing the shows and waterpark , next year the rides ...... Now I feel like piece of shyt they had me bamboozled with them announcing how environmentally safe and sea friendly they are in the park . They don't even give you lids for fountain drinks since they aren't environmentally friendly. I was really bothered by this shyt brehs . Between this and the circus and the zoo all these muthafukkers exploit they animals in my book . My girl watched a hbo documentary about elephants And tried to get me to watch it naaaaaw I can't handle that stress..another horribly depressing documentary is dear Zachary a letter to son , shyt made me sick
