SeaWorld has caved to outside pressures to stop it's infamous Orca (Killer Whale) shows that they have used as a marketing tool to attract customers for year. SeaWorld attendance dropped 17% last year losing them 3.8 million dollars in one year.
SeaWorld officials stated they are moving away from the entertainment shows to focus more on educating the public on Orca habitat, which means they don't plan of releasing the Orcas anytime soon.
I provide my opinion in the podcast on the subject as it relates to the available science out there.
