Absolutely stunning video... I almost cried. Keiko was my obsession during the years between Free Willy's release (no pun intended!) and Keiko's unfortunate death. @oldskoolchopperboy: I completely agree with you, and double agree with you about SeaWorld. The captive marine mammal industry must be stopped. But please remember that Keiko, like many other orcas and dolphins, was captured from the wild, not captive bred. Both practices are unnecessary, but especially live captures....
Sure we study animals in the wild, but the real learning experiences come from the animals in aquariums, from getting up close and personal with them. Also I firmly believe that there will come a time in the future where the environment will be to damaged for these animals to live in, so the ONLY place that will be safe for them is in an aquarium. If you look around and read the news it is already happening.
Beautiful video locsamOrca! :) I'm not going to join in any argument, and I don't mean to spam the video but there are some dolphins in Egypt who really need all the help they can get, they are in an unfiltered tank the size of a swimming pool and were caught in dolphin drives in Japan. PM for information on how you can help.
@thedevilsdaughter65 I have a stupid question you said orcas born in captivity have the same rights as the ones in the wild correct? What exactly does that intail cause if you are thinking what I think your thinking I might have a few issues with that.
what did u use for that? I love this orca!!!!!!! THE MOST BEAUTIFULL ORCA KEIKO IN WHOLE WORLD BUT I STILL CRYED :( ITS SO SAD WHEN KEIKO RIP IN DECEMBER 2003 12 DAY I MISS THE ORCA R.IP
SeaWorld had nothing to do with it. It was because of an Aquarium in Mexico that he started having all these problems in the first place. Because of the poor conditions of the tank he was being kept in, the tank was to shallow and not large enough.
I couldn't agree more. It is deplorable and inhuman to keep these beautiful creatures in shallow ponds, forced to do cutesy tricks, for all the screaming and cheering fans. The noise pollution alone, is horrible. They do not thrive in captivity. I am American and I am ashamed that places such as sea world are legal.
no its not. she's asking what Song Does Jesse ( the boy) plays everytime on his harmonica. the way it sounds... it seems like an orca.. just a thought..
@namuchildtake2 Bottom line, what right does some corporation have to keep these amazing mammals captive, so they can line their pockets with cash? people somehow like to put themselves above all other life on this planet, I don't see how we have the right to do that.
Never at any point did i say other places dont. Im well aware they do but the topic in hand was Keiko. Im not digging out Americans, just the ones that participate in cruel behaviour. If u dont have the time comment then dont but i will comment all i want.
@oldskoolchopperboy sometimes animals must be put in captivity because they cant surive in the wild on their own! Keiko died of puenioma because they put him back into the wild, America does not have cruel circuses so unless you live here dont go saying something until you have youre facts straight! America tries to do what's best for animals too just like other places! We dont breed just for profits either! so until you have the facts shut up
You know I don't agree either that they should be doing shows. I don't agree with them being taken from the wild. If they are bred in captivity then that is what I am fine with.
And other places dont? Yes we have zoos and sea worlds and amuzement parks with animals, but dont act like other countries dont. So just stop calling Americans cruel, because there are other cruel people out tere doing far worse than putting these animals in a "fish bowl" so either agree to disagree or just dont comment back because i dont have time for this
You know that saying if you can't say anything nice at all? well then that applies to you! and I have watched the Cove I don't Agree with that. I am NOT ignorant I did trainer for a day and went behind the scenes at The Puerto Vallarta Adventure center. There Dolphin Research Facility is on the Ocean, So the pens are in the ocean. I also swam with the Sea Lions. I should be able to come on here and voice my opinions with out being jumped on.
@airbear2482 Hey, this is a public forum, and a heated issue. Can't take the heat, get out of the kitchen. Orcas born in captivity, deserve the same as their non-captivity born cousins. It is that, sitting on the fence, refusing to take sides attitude that plagues this world. If you don't like my comments, then try to say something intelligent.
@namuchildtake2 well, if read all of my post, then it should not be a mystery what I meant. I mean, that just because some aqautic zoo decided to breed some orca's, that doesn't give them the right to take away what Orca's and all living creatures need and deserve. Freedom..Orca's in captivity is wrong. They DO NOT thrive. They don't have the social structure they need, they can't swim like they need. And for them to have listen to screaming people, is horrible and painful for them.
Americans paid for keikos capture. Torn from his family so yes it was cruel and they still continue to keep these animals for show. Its called exploitation. its a disgrace these animals r kept in fish bowls. i know its not your fault but dont defend this behaviour please

half the killer whale population in captivity shouldn't be in captivity i get that but the ones born in the aquarium can't be released
Katrina Goodsell ok
