For many years now SeaWorld has provided people with an opportunity to see many sea creatures and Killer Whales perform. These creatures have been trained over the years to perform various times throughout the day. Sea World, however, took these killer whales (orcas) away from their families and home.

SeaWorld is losing more and more visitors each year, which is causing their revenue to decrease as well. The big discussion towards SeaWorld is whether it should be shut down or not. Even though there have been many injuries and deaths at SeaWorld, SeaWorld should not be shut down because it impacts the lives of the trainers and visitors and it makes the lives of the animals at SeaWorld better. First of all, SeaWorld makes the animals’ lives better. They have invested millions of dollars to help

“SLAP”, that’s the sound of a killer whale jumping into a bathtub. The audience cheers...but what they don’t know is there is a dark side to SeaWorld. You might know SeaWorld for its famous Orca Shows. Those shows that you go to are killing animals and people. I believe that killer whales should be treated fairly, be trained and cared for properly, and live a healthy lifestyle. First of all, SeaWorld's trainers are not biologists or experts… THEY ARE PERFORMERS. The “trainers” just teach the animals

Should SeaWorld be shutdown? Growing up we would see commercials of SeaWorld, showing us Killer whales entertaining the crowd by performing tricks never seen before. Tourists can leave the park being reassured that killer whales in captivity in fact enjoy performing and are living the lavish lifestyle. Their living standards are far more superior to anything found in “dark, scary ocean.”( a term used by SeaWorld’s executives to defend okra captivity.) Yet when the doors are

related to the corrupt place we have come to known called SeaWorld. February 24, 2010 was just another regular day for whale trainer, Dawn Brancheau. Today was another highly anticipated Shamu show displaying the training and talents of the biggest killer whale in captivity in SeaWorld’s history, Tilikum. What Brancheau and Seaworld did not know was that this day would infamously impact the “brand name” that Tilikum had begun for SeaWorld and that this event would trigger the movement to end killer

SPLASH!!!!! A killer whale just made a flip in the air. We were in line to get our tickets to watch a show in SeaWorld. At first, I was scared because I had never seen a show at SeaWorld before. The line was not so long because we lined up early and we were near the front. When we finally got our tickets we headed towards our seats. After everyone was there the show began. A guy was passing out popcorn and cotton candy for free so we just got both. Then there was very loud music and a woman

eventually drowned her. Many think this was an act of frustration because he was not receiving fish when correctly doing his behaviors. Dawn was known as a trainer that followed the rules making sure everyone was doing things right. After this accident SeaWorld pinned it on Dawn saying it was a “training error” and she did not follow all the correct rules. Following her death, Tilikum was kept in a tiny cage in the back of the park that made his swimming abilities at an all-time low, he no longer got to

never see up close and everyone enjoying themselves filled with joy except this is not true this is far from it but there are two sides to the story as not everyone at seaworld enjoys themselves behind the tricks and shows are imprisoned animals being forced to perform tricks who were taken away from their natural home as young. Seaworld is not a place where these animals should be held they should be in their natural homes and should've never been taken in the first place. “Sea world” the name sounds

is more intense than ever. SeaWorld and Universal Studios have both rolled out major new attractions in the last few years and Universal is planning to add even more Harry Potter , a brand that already drove millions of new guests to their gates .

Whenever SeaWorld or Universal raises their prices
