Title: Re: Truth in Advertising... Post by: MFAWG on February 24, 2010, 07:02:35 PM Quote Tilikum was one of three whales blamed for killing a trainer in 1991 at Sealand of the Pacific in Victoria, British Columbia. A man's body was also found draped over Tilikum at Orlando SeaWorld in July 1999. Daniel Dukes reportedly made his way past security at SeaWorld and either jumped, fell or was pulled into the frigid water of Tilikum's huge tank. An autopsy ruled that he died of hypothermia, but authorities said it appeared Tilikum bit the man and tore off his swimming trunks. sea world In 1999, a 27-year-old South Carolina man somehow entered a whale tank at SeaWorld Orlando after park hours and drowned. Daniel Dukes, who was carrying false identification, was found dead with a bite below his waist, according to autopsy results. He was bitten by Tilikum. WTF? Title: Re: Truth in Advertising...

In these here parts, we call 'em by their CORRECT name: Orcas. I haven't heard anybody use the term 'Killer Whale' in forever. Title: Re: Truth in Advertising...

Uh, how about setting the *goshdarn* animal free? Because they're pack animals who don't generally adopt adults is my guess. Title: Re: Truth in Advertising...
