Funny how Sea World masks the fact they're merely a circus for marine animals by calling tricks "behaviors." These animals do not belong in captivity.
@roxann7699roxy They can call it whatever they want but in the wild a dolphin doesn't do a triple backflip, an orca doesn't "alien" out of the water spitting it everywhere, and a pilot whale has no reason to surface on the land doing "present." These are tricks because they are modifications to things the animals *can* do but likely would never have any need/want to do in the wild.
@peepchick101: So after 40 years of living in captivity and depending on people, do you think Bubbles should just be "released" into the ocean! That's quite an ignorant thought!
@TheDurbin123 ok, if you can not be nice to a place like sea world that rescues and rehabilitates more marine mamals than anyother zoo and aquarium combined, then do not bother watching their videos and making stupid comments like that one, you know that these whales can not be released because they are too dependant on humans and besides they are better off here at sea world anyway where they can get the best care that they need!
@zorca23 then when all those whales die stop getting more, see you people think sea world cares about the animals, but if they really did why would they imprison them like so? Its all about the money.
@TheDurbin123 they need to make money so they can take care of the animals, and they have a breeding program setup so they never have to capture animals from the wild
@TheDurbin123 really? What kind of ignorant idiot are you? "let that whale be free?" She has been in Captivity the majority of her life (40+ years). She has relied on people, she hasn't had to hunt or evade predators. Do you really think she'd be able to survive and be happy? Her humans are her friends, her companions...you want to take that away from her? She is safe at Sea World. Safe from predators, safe from oil, safe from environmental change. Leave Bubbles ALONE!!!
i thought i won't get wet in a dolphin show coz they're too small to make the shamu splash. but then the pilot whale appeared out of nowhere as a guest!! there goes my 2nd set of dry clothes =) was fun.
When dolphins beach themselves in the wild, they do so because they are sick, disoriented, injured or otherwise in some kind of distress. Many of the beached animals die from the resulting pressure and damage to their internal organs. A captive dolphin that lifts itself out of the water and onto a platform or stage has been trained to beach itself on command. SOURCE WSPA
Seaworld support the Dolphin Massacre that is happening in Japan they buy their dolphins from there and the unwanted dolphins are slaughtered. Seaworld=demons.
@scratchaholiks SeaWorld does in no way support dolphin slaughter. It is illegal to import wild animals into the United States of America. Get your facts straight.
@scratchaholiks actually they dont most of the animals they have there are botn at sea world and they havent purchased a animal in a very long time. it is in every way illegal in the united states to extract marine animals from the wild and especially illegal to purchase them from japan. so maybe you should research before you say stuff like that
Can Seaworld educate?. If you attend a SHOW, you will learn that a whale can carry a trainer across the pool, jump trough hoops, flip their tale and wet you. On the other hand, if people were to take a boat ride and observe them in their natural environment, they may learn how these magnificent mammals interact in their complex social networks, and about their migrating patterns, or even see their amazing altruistic behavior within their species. Seaworld educational... ridiculous.
@truth2748 well actually they are pretty educational if you really look at it they always tell you numbers of facts. you can watch the animals getting fed and playing with each other. there are exhibits everywhere with facts and information written on every little bit of area.
@Cranma5678 Sure, when you go home after visiting this concentration camp, you can't wait to talk and tell everyone about the facts and figures, which you probably don't even remember. This is just plain and simple entertainment for the anthropocentric human vermin.
Pilot whales aren't ugly - they're beautiful, unique marine mammals. They're incredibly strong and intelligent. Just because they aren't as glorified and well-recognized as orcas or bottlenosed dolphins doesn't mean they're ugly.
Isn't Bubbles the oldest -cetacean- in captivity? Caught in 1966 I think...I can't think of any around that are older than that. She seems sweet like a sweet ol' gal.
Love this video! I don't think the pilor whales get enough attention...people are all about the bottlenoses, or orcas.
bubbles is cute!

If you pay admission to such an establishment, you are helping to kill dolphins and whales. It’s as simple as that.

The discomfort to the animal can be great and permanent injury is only avoided by the trainer recalling the animal to the water in time.
