"And it later emerged he had killed before."

"He dragged her underneath the water and wouldn't let her come up."

"The force by which the woman was pulled into water - her shoes were pulled off - was terrible."

"Tillikum, along with a pregnant whale called Haida II and a third whale Nootka IV, grabbed her in their mouths and tossed her to each other, presumably playing."

"Since his arrival he has fathered numerous calves with a string of females."

"A dead man was found naked on the back of Tillikum in a backstage tank in 1999."



something tells me TILLIKUM doesn't really like being in captivity

he's well FLAIR

Further proof that orcas are NOT hard, I give you the Michael Barrymore of the sea:

"Trainer"?

Training whales to do WHAT?

Why not? Orcas are only dolphins and everyone knows how trainable they are.

"The animal carried out the deadly attack on Dawn Brancheau, 40, after she was seen giving it a "massage"."

She only has herself to blame. Why the hell was she wanking he poor animal off?

Like the classy relevant reference at the end:


Sex shame golfer Tiger Woods' children were recently taken to see the show there by his wife Elin's sister.

Certainly no "happy ending" to this massage

so didn't they think maybe after the first killing they shouldn't use this whale anymore??

Humans and Killer Whales do not mix. Humans should be on the land and Whales should be in the open Sea and not in a cramped pool being gawped at by Humans and made to perform tricks. If not this sort of thing can happen.

Spot on!

Horses shouldn't be made to carry humans and run round race tracks. But that seems to be ok?

The horses US backs don't exactly run... they sort of amble.

US is spot on about the whales. I thought that these type of 'shows' had disappeared.

ST in different point of view to US SHOCKER !

killer whale, does what it says on the tin

Also most people agree that Horse actually enjoy the experience of the race and have a close bond with Humans. Whales in cramped swimming pools being made to do tricks with beasts who are meant to be in vast oceans seems slightly different but if you think its the same , fair enough

I used to like the Dolphins in Brighton.

I do actually agree about the whales. But I don't see how horse racing, where they're kept in stables & fenced it is that different. Go to the New Forest & you'll see horses roaming free - as they're meant to be.
