they should set the whale free it should be in the wild
i love animals myself and pittbulls are considered to be a dangerous animals bcse of dogfights and that isnt true at all .pittbulls are good dogs i should know bcse i had taken care of five pitts and dogs that are mean are raised that way and it depends on the way that you raise em.to get a good loving dog,you must raise it that way.if you want a mean dog you must raise it to be that way.all kinds of animals have their own risks.if someone was to own a snake then you must know the risks of having one.As the late Steve Irwin said "Dont Muck with Them".
lol it is as i said it :) all kinds of animals have their own risks
I think we may be drifting a bit from the OP. In the end, good or bad; Humans want to see animals do slightly demeaming things for our enjoyment. I am not an Orca, but as a huge fat man I would much rather be fed and hang in a nicely maintained heated enclosure and wear a hat then out in the wild where the other Orcas would mock me for my fashion sense. Many, many of the animals in Aquariums/zoos would never be able to survive on their own in the wild. And also there is a lot of scientific research that happens, research that helps the animals kin out in the wild that places like Sea World and the Zoos rarely advertise.
Oceanic animals, as well as the exotic Lions and Lemurs and the very rare Empathetic Evony Customer Service Reps are super popular to watch exactly because we people have little or no chance to see them in the wild.
I was taking a Ferry from Port Angeles Wash to Victoria Island, and I was able to see some of the Orcas play in the heated water behind the Ferry propellers. A few also breahed. Now, that was amazing. It was more amazing then seeing the Orcas at Sea World as a kid because these creatures were free; were playing around- and I also knew that it was a spectacle few people will ever see.
But once again I was fairly certain if i fell in the water the Orcas would have used me as a rag doll or worse; a concubine.

In the end we are not going to kill the planet. We might make it unlivable for humankind and most of the current living species. But, mother nature will continue unabated long after we are extinct. ;)
It takes a helluva strong ego to think that anything we puny humans do will end this planet.
Gaia will simply adapt to ANYTHING we do.
i do know for a fact that none of the pittbulls that i had taken care of have .never had harmed anybody.they all was too sweet and loving to do so.their names are Jada,Sid,Pancho,Chaos,Sabbath.Sid died as a puppy and an older dog grabbed him by his throat :( he never played rough with me.Jada is very sweet and loving.and the others never had hurted me or my family.
Scarlet. The conversation about Pit Bulls should be in another thread. Those animals(and all dogs) Have been Bred for a specific purpose. We are talking about the idea of a Wild Animal put in captivity, and after it killed someone should said animal be allowed to still perform. If a Pitbull killed someone, would the dog be allowed to go back performing "The Swan Princess on Ice" Over in Culver City?
Lets all be honest; the fact Tilikum killed someone will be forgotten fairly soon. At least until some other accident happens that causes us to fret about these issues.
Historically Humans have always had animals perform. I am just waiting for the Monkey People to rise up and start making us as pets.
alright and i have given up animals because i had to move :( and it was Jada that i had to give up :(.she was special to me because she thought i was her person.
This whole episode could be compared to a rodeo.Wild horses have been captured for years.Bred for their showmanship and then put on display for human entertainment.
Orca are much larger,more social and intelligent animals.I have known some pretty smart horses.I would be insane to get into a pen with them though.Having a pair of rear hooves purposely aimed at your head with a lot of punch behind them is unhealthy.
The whole thing can be used as a learning exp.I was raised in Puget Sound and have been in close contact with Orca.Once while fishing for Salmon I had one actually bump/slap the side of the kayak.I felt it was on purpose.I was in their waters.I don't do this anymore.That would be tempting fate.
I think this Orca could be returned to the wild.I would hope that If they chose to do this they would include a few members of his species and social group.
