2) only 5.1% of these

were the result of work with captive animals. Of these few studies,

more than a third were conducted through institutions that are

not open to the public. There were only two abstracts submitted

by SeaWorld, the largest holder of captive marine mammals in the

world. At several previous SMM biennial conferences, no major

North American facility made a presentation. Naomi A. Rose PhD 2009

@melony91able First off who is "we", are you on the Board of Directors?, do you have Stock? SW has been trying to re-brand itself in the last seven years as pro-enviromental, which is no small thing with the blood on their hands. The funds SW makes available to those it chooses is token at best, with all their cash and facilities they don't even rank on the list of the actual Communities that do the real work in Conservation, Research, Environmental.

@melony91able Marine parks have shown no more interest in conserving marine mammals' natural habitats than they have in educating audiences. In fact,

the industry has actively lobbied to keep small cetaceans, such as orcas and dolphins, outside the jurisdiction of the International Whaling

Commission (even though this would help protect these animals in the wild) because they don't want to risk not being able to capture

additional animals in the future. -WAF

@melony91able Your arguments are hubris..."because we save animals not hurt them" The long line of premature aged Orca dead in the Parks, the decimated Southern Resident group that SW ripped apart, the active SW lobbyists keeping Orca off the IWC species protected list, the misinformation SW has gotten away with since the 1994 MMPA changes the Parks lobbyists fought for. That's plenty of hurt...

[melony91able]

@metridium oh nd the shows and attractions help get us money to support the animals

[melony91able]

@metridium yes because we save animals not hurt them

[metridium]

@melony91able Sorry your comment is incoherent. Are you saying Sea World is saving Orca?

[melony91able]
