Stop Mistreating Whales

Stop Mistreating Whales

The Issue

SeaWorld has no regard for animal rights when it comes to whales. These majestic creatures are enclosed in tiny pools barely big enough to fit themselves, and the deepest tank for whales at Seaworld is only 40 feet deep. This also causes problems because orcas are used to being around other whales, their pods typically include about 40 whales. SeaWorld also takes some of its whales from the wild and separates them from their families. They use a large net to capture these creatures that should be free to roam the ocean. Some of these whales also die when being captured with a net. It is a proven fact that whales in captivity have a shorter lifespan and while a whale lives for about 75 years in the wild, they only live for about 9 in captivity. Baby whales are also separated from their mothers at a very young age and will never see each other again. SeaWorld has also been aware of the movements and media against their practices, but ignores these things and calls them "shamefully dishonest". This is why we must create more movements against them until they finally listen to our voices.
