"HIS NEXT DAY OFF IS THE DAY HE DIES." RIP Tilikum. After 33 years of being held against your will, at least you are finally free now. The madness has to stop: • At least 150 orcas have been taken from their families and forced into captivity from the wild since 1961 and 128 of these are now dead • At least 164 orcas have died in captivity, this does not include 30 miscarriages/still borns • 92% of SeaWorld's orcas did not survive past the age of 25 yet the average life span for orca in the wild is 30 (males) / 50 (females) with many cases of wild orca living up to 80-90 years of age • The annual mortality rate of orcas is 250% higher in captivity than in the wild • Due to shallow pools and insufficient room to move freely, 100% of male orcas experience Dorsal Fin collapse compared to less than 1% in the wild • An orca would need to swim the perimeter of the main pool more than 1,400 times per day to match the equivalent daily distance travelled in the wild - that means their captive tanks equate to roughly 0.0001 % of their natural movement in the wild . #riptilikum #freeatlast #emptythetanks #seaworldofhurt #seaworldsucks #boycotseaworld #fuckseaworld #endcaptivity #blackfish #orca #freetilly
