quote:

On July 6, 1999, a 27-year-old man named Daniel P. Dukes was found dead and naked, draped over Tilikum’s back.[13] Dukes had visited SeaWorld the previous day, stayed after the park closed, and evaded security to enter the orca tank. An autopsy found numerous wounds, contusions, and abrasions covering his body, including "postmortem laceration and avulsion of the scrotum with testes," concluding that Dukes may have died from hypothermia and drowning. Details regarding Dukes' swim trunks suggest they were torn off by Tilikum

put tilikum in a miami megaprison for the rest of his days

There's always the whale that inspired Moby Dick.

Owen Chase posted:

I turned around and saw him about one hundred rods [500 m or 550 yards] directly ahead of us, coming down with twice his ordinary speed of around 24 knots (44 km/h), and it appeared with tenfold fury and vengeance in his aspect. The surf flew in all directions about him with the continual violent thrashing of his tail. His head about half out of the water, and in that way he came upon us, and again struck the ship.

On February 20, 1991, Keltie Byrne, a 20-year-old marine biology student and competitive
swimmer, slipped into the pool containing Tilikum, Haidi II and Nootka IV while working as a
part-time Sealand trainer. The three orcas submerged her, dragging her around the pool and
preventing her from surfacing.[5] At one point she reached the side and tried to climb out
but, as horrified visitors watched from the sidelines, the orcas pulled her screaming back
into the pool. Other trainers responded to her screams, throwing her a life-ring, but the
orcas kept her away from it. She surfaced three times screaming before drowning, and it
was several hours before her body could be recovered from the pool.

II? IV? This is like the parents who kill their kid's pets and try to buy another one and hope the kid doesn't notice.

Just like SeaWorld does.

What about that orca that flipped a great white to put it into tonic immobility then drowned it to eat the liver?

That was so hardcore all the other great whites in the area hosed off for the rest of the season.
