PETA’s forecast for SeaWorld San Antonio—cloudy with a chance of freedom:

On Saturday, PETA’s “Let Orcas Out of Prison” banner flew across the sky while dedicated PETA supporters on the ground spread the word that trainers and animals will continue to get hurt or die until SeaWorld frees the animals to sanctuaries.

Coastal sanctuaries are the only humane places for the wild animals who are currently used by SeaWorld and other parks and who suffer for years in confined, unnatural conditions. One psychologist has pointed out that Tilikum—the captive orca who killed a SeaWorld trainer—is so traumatized from the shock of his capture, the disruption of his natural development, and his more than 30 years of imprisonment in a concrete pool that if he were human, he would undoubtedly be diagnosed with post-traumatic stress disorder.

SeaWorld’s continued exploitation of these sensitive animals is nothing more than a callous way to turn a cheap buck. Please don’t support it.
