could you shut up your mouth? everyone know that whales die -.- evrything die one day... captivity is young! you can tell those things in 300-400 years, if it all routine... but it's all new for you, me and the marineparks -.- they have to finde the right formula -.- we talk in 400 years about it again, see you...

You apparently don't seem to get the message that none of the viewers of this video care what you have to say. Also, infant mortality rates in wild orcas are just as high as captive ones.
Just like everybody knows that they aren't named shamu right? Alot of people just like to think shamu is the main whale and has been there the whole time. Metridium is just stating facts, but you people that love seaworld just dont want to hear the truth. You want your stupid photos and you want to see all the orcas jump and splash you.

the people only want to have fun. I don't love seaworld -.- don't tell lie about me-.- where are the facts? there aren't facts. NO BODY can tell facts cause nobody knows the truth -.- not you, ne he, not me. NOBODY! you have to know, that every one lie! EVERYONE! SeaWorld, wdcs, marineland, free willy fundation. they all want to be on right. so they have to lie. you will see, you will lie to, to be change the opinion of people.
Fun by watching these whales do unatural tricks for peoples entertainment? You can go home after the show. But they cant. I don't want to argue, because I know people like you. You will never change your mind about captivity. And you dont have a right to say nobody knows the truth, because the truth is the animals had to come from SOMEWHERE, and that SOMEWHERE is the wild. Sorry if you want to shut your ears and not listen, the only thing you are hurting by doing that is the whales you "love".

-.- the most orcas come from captivity. right, the orcas aren't there for magic reasons. they wasn't god and put then in a tank. if they don't like this life, they have to kill themself. they they can be happy. if they don't kill theirself, they are happy, or do oyu want to live if you all life is shit? ok, OFTEN I think the wild whales want to be free... by there family. I think they miss them much. but they accept the life they get. they accept, maybe they don't love.
How about this. When you have a baby, Ill kill part of your family, take away your child, put it in a cage, and tell it to perform the rest of its life in front of thousands of people. But you can never see it. Oh, and I will ride it around and make it live with strangers.
ok, that's more or less the same... I only mean. so bad they don't feel. many humans killed themself, cause they doesn't want to be a prisinor. so if they are like us, they can kill themself... but they don't. and after 30 years in captivity they can't have hope to be free o.O
Some of them do and have. I'm not joining the for or against captivity argument, because while I think orcas should not be taken from the wild there are some benefits to captivity, including learning more about how to help wild ones. But there are documented cases of orca charging the sides of tanks they're put in until they kill themselves. Google it.
UlyssesFan you're unbelievably crass and obtuse. 107 dead Orca at an average age of a young person and you state about this statistic and an on another video "who cares?" This is not the first time you've come out with these smug Nazi comments. We can only hope life teaches you humility and empathy.
don't call me nazi you fucking asshole -.- let the animals life, when they want to life in this fucking small tank like lolita, thats theit fault. they can die if they want. everything can die if it think there is no way to get a good life -.-
thank you for your good eye in your observation...smile. I might try to upload this again... I don't understand why the youtube picture quality is so bad... the actual video is way better...
Ahhh shes so cute and still is great video can i use some footage?

Even worse, the 'Shamu myth' conceals deaths from the paying public. Since the name
is passed from orca to orca, 'Shamu' never dies. In 1991, following the death of one of
the orcas at Sea World's Texas park, a spokesman said 'Shamu has not died today. One
of the whales who plays that role we lost this morning, yes. But Shamu lives on."Dying to Entertain You" Whale and Dolphin Conservation Society.

SeaWorld also states that 26
orcas have been born in captivity, lauding this as a success.
This is a significant misrepresentation of the facts; there have actually
been at least 66 known pregnancies, but most fetuses miscarried, were
stillborn, or died soon after birth (one newborn calf dying soon
after the paper was accepted for publication),at least 61% of captive orca pregnancies have been unsuccessful, due
to the death of the calf before or just after birth. Naomi A. Rose-PhD-2009
