Didn’t know where and if to write this, that until the moment I noticed the link to Bloons. Then I realised it would be hypocritical for me not to write because I’ve been looking for this game for ages. I was hooked to it some time ago and then lost the link plus couldn’t remember the name of the game.

Anyways, what I wanted to say is – thanks! And not just for helping me get my addiction back. I found your blog a few days ago and read it through almost immediately. Enjoyed the reading a lot, had a good laugh or two, which I really appreciated as it doesn’t happen too often nowadays.

Thanks for sharing and good luck!

The funeral was held yesterday, so now I hope everyone at Sea World can get things going back the way they were. I have to believe that Dawn would have wanted everyone to move forward. Still very tragic.

I give Jack Hanna credit for doing the damage control, but should wild animals really be in captivity? Still a Trending Topic on Twitter today http://bit.ly/a9IaX7

Ethically speaking: As long as the experts believe that it can survive on its own in the wild then it should be set free. If it is incapable of surviving, then releasing it would be effectively killing it and I that would be unethical. At some point someone [or some entity] took this animal away or denied this animal its natural life. At that point… See More that person or entity took responsibility for its life. If it can’t be returned to its natural life in the wild then that person or entity needs to step up, take responsibility and provide for its care. If experts say that means building a special holding facility that prevents or severly limits exposure to humans and allows for his quality of life to remain as close to natural as possible, then that person or entity should be required to provide the resources to accomplish that.

Now, if one doesn’t care to bother oneself with ‘time and energy-waisting ethical debates’ one might want frame this in practical terms: financially speaking: The situation has reached the point of diminishing returns. In order to stem the hemorage of profits and minimize exposure to liability, terminating its life is simply logical.

Let’s see which road Sea World takes.

He needs space,not everyone likes to jump around everyday
besides i dont know how old he is??

anyway im agains for putting him down,i mean he maybe got panic or something or he was thinking ”man im so tired and mad i just want to rip somebody i half”

he is also not born in captivity,i’d say he maybe needs to get back home where he belongs

Comment on Raddest Tattoo Ever by Tattoomenow

Interesting tattoo. I always love to say that After you finally make up your mind to get a tattoo, the most important and hardest decision to make are what tattoo design to get and where on your body you should get it at. However, it is paramount to stay away from tattoo trends. This is because there is a very high likelihood that your tattoo design that was once popular will not look so great a few years down the lane. After all trends or fads fade out of style all the time. The best piece of advice is just to simply stay away from tattoo trends, unless it is something that you truly want and can live with forever.

When I first heard the news, I thought “not again”. It’s not that long ago that a similar incident happened at Loro-Parc (teneriffa).
The Orca had been involved in suspicious deaths before though this time it was ruled that he was innocent – the trainer drowned, even if nobody knows why.

What we never should forget is that Orcas are and will always be wild animals. They haven’t gone through centuries of domestication, to expect that an animal will loose all its wild instincts just because of training is wrong. It’s not in their nature.

If Dawn Brancheau was as good as it is being claimed, the entire program needs to be reevaluated.
I’m not for killing Tillikum, but he should be taken out of the program, leave him alone.

Thank you for this post. I totally missed this piece of news. I think the Orca should be kept alive and at the park. Maybe she could be kept away from the public but I think that might even make things worse. Like Chans said; she needs to be stimulated.

As far as punishing Tillikum for what happened; she has no idea she did something wrong. Orca’s aren’t domesticated and even one who grew up in captivity is, essentially, wild. they are unpredictable.

I’m really sorry Brancheau got killed but, like Steve Irwin, she knew the risks and she accepted them.
