    Also didn’t SeaWorld agree to stop using orcas recently?

      “We have elected to stop tormenting one specific species of animals. Please pat our corporate heads.” Fuck zoos and aquariums.

        Do they still have other live animals besides the orcas?

          Are you asking… If an Aquarium have other live animals? What else would they have? Did you mean mammals?

            My understanding was that SeaWorld has been pivoting from aquarium to theme park for a while now.

            But also yeah it’s far less of a big deal to keep fish in captivity as long as it’s done by Marine biologists.
