I'd rather see an orca being used for entertainment and being taken care of and fed at Seaworld than being slaughtered in the wild for absolutely no reason. So I'm sorry, but I do disagree with you. :\ You all really just need to calm down. Animals die unexpectedly anywhere you go. Not just at Seaworld or Aquariums.. so you really need to get over that idea.
Just because incidents like stillborns, and twisted intestines and bacterial infections happen in captivity doesn't mean that they don't happen in the wild. Animals die in the wild. Get over it.
No kidding animals die in the wild. That'd be like saying, rabbits die in the wild so why get them out of animal testing labs where they die everyday there, as well? The two types of deaths are very different - caused by environments. When we know for a fact that captive orcas, elephants, and a handful of other large, intelligent, particularly social animals die much younger in 'human care', why have them here at all?
For entertainment? Totally valid reason for their deaths..
@boodylover86 Personally, I just don't see any need to "go to an aquarium." We honestly don't need to see these animals to appreciate them/learn about them. As a landlocked Midwesterner myself, I rarely make it out to the ocean to check on J, K, and L pod, but I do still consider them among my favorite type of animal. Watching documentaries about them, reading about them, etc are all decent ways to educate one's self without having to confine them first.
Just to tell you if they realese Lolita she could die becase she is used to being fed not searching please dont reaspond to this because she just needs a bigger tank
@beetle5999 Well, too bad, I am responding to this. I'm sure you've done years of research into this like I have, but it is completely possible to release an animal like Lolita.
Hundreds of captive, performing beings, like elephants, rhinos, bears, dolphins, etc have been released after years confined to small spaces, eating scraps of dead food. Now they can live a 'real' life in the wild, with their families again. This is what needs to happen for Lolita. She can't be allowed to die alone.
All wild orcas leave their pods to mate. This period of time is for 1-2 weeks at most, and then they always return to their mother's pod. Orcas do not mate within their own family ("inbreeding"), although it can happen in captivity because they have less selection.
So in other words, in the wild, a young orca, like Kohana, Tekoa, Ikaika, Shouka, (just some examples) would still be with their mother's pods, instead of sold off to other theme parks across the world.
I encourage anyone with questions to please message me, although note that I am rarely on YouTube these days so I apologize in advance if my reply is a week or so late.
Thank you for watching and feel free to check out my other videos.
I'm always interested about the pronunciation of orca names. I notice you say "TilEEkum" (i say "TilUHkum"). It's probably my dodgy accent though lol xD
I don't understand how anyone can look at captivity and say "that's ok". It's not ok, it's disgusting!
Hey everyone, i'm planning on opening a human attraction. I'm thinking of ripping some babies from their mothers, forcing them into a small room, and making them perform. Then I will breed them in this tiny room to make money. Think that's ok?
@FreedomForOrcas that sounds like an awesome attraction/amusement park! I hope there's is a petting/feeding area where we can interact with the captured humans! let me know when this place opens! :P
@underpaperstars - I'm glad you like it! I'm still thinking of a name for this place.. something catchy. Of course there will be a petting and feeding area, however some of the humans may bite or attack the guests, but of course we will try and cover that up ;)
