Better Conditions for Killer Whales In Captivity! Help Tilikum...

"Maybe we as a species have outgrown the need to keep such wild, enormous, complex, intelligent, and free-ranging animals in captivity, where their behavior is not only unnatural; it can become pathological. Maybe we have learned all we can from keeping them captive." Jean-Michel Cousteau

• Tilikum was the Killer Whale that was involved in the February incident where SeaWorld trainer Dawn Brancheau was killed. There has been a lot of speculation on what should be done with his future, but many people have no idea of his past. Tilikum is almost 30 years old, and he has had a life filled with abuse and negligence. Now SeaWorld thinks it would be wrong to introduce Tilikum to a larger more natural habitat, instead keeping him in a small tank for breeding purposes with no social or human interaction. SeaWorld, please stop breeding Tilikum and allow him to have a peaceful life.
  Now Tilikum has no interaction. He used to have belly rubs, now he is hosed down from a distance. He has had a difficult life being taken from his family, kept in small spaces, and forced to perform. Even though Dawn Brancheau's story is a tragic one, Tilikum never chose his tragic fate. It is time that SeaWorld stops using marine wildlife for profit. Killer Whales and other marine life do not belong in captivity. These creatures are not educating the human race by doing repetitive tricks for our amusement. Tilikum is just one whale, but it is time we start making SeaWorld accountable. We need to be his voice.
