PETA supporting animals who eat their trainer? WWF looking for more $ from little old ladies to buy ORCA food?..gotta love the enviro terrorists....they spin it all ways. Killed 3 people and still alive.....now that's a liberal!!!! PEW PEW PEW....stinks
they should let him go. he is obviously not meant to be held in a swimming pool for our enjoyment.
I do feel bad for the trainer or trainers...
I blame the seaworld mgmt people. he's done it before and they moved him to florida to hide it...when they should have dumped him back into puget sound after the first time.
And btw...I'm as far away from being a liberal or peta supporter...

The whale, named Tilikum, apparently grabbed Brancheau by her long ponytail, according to the head of animal training at all SeaWorld parks, Chuck Tompkins. He told ABC's "Good Morning America" that her ponytail swung out in front of the whale. "That's when the trainer next to him (Tilikum) said that he grabbed the hair, pulled her under water. And of course, held her under water," Tompkins said.
Another audience member, Victoria Biniak, told WKMG-TV the whale "took off really fast in the tank, and then he came back, shot up in the air, grabbed the trainer by the waist and started thrashing around, and one of her shoes flew off."
Maybe they should rename him to "Takillum". Or, just let him go.
And this just in...
DUBAI, United Arab Emirates – Water gushed from a leak in a shark-filled aquarium in a ritzy Dubai mall on Thursday, sending startled shoppers scattering and shutting down nearby shops in one of the city's proudest attractions.
