Corky has been in captivity since 1969. She is a Northern Resident from the A5 pod, A23 matriline.

@Timothy O'Mara half of that statement is true. while many of their whales are captive raised, there are still several adults who come from the wild. Sea World is not a zoo or an aquarium it is an amusement park.

@Timothy O'Mara yes now currently. but some of those animals are thirty or forty years old. back then it was typical to catch all manner of animals.

Is Tilikum related to them?

Sally Green they have access to the showpool and backstage pools. Trainers give them toys,treats,rubs, and care.

Poor poor animals DON' T BUY A TICKET

Sally Green: Yeah sure, let’s release the orcas into the wild where they have no idea how to defend themselves, or hunt! And let’s let them survive on their own WITHOUT a pod to help them so they can be alone and scared for the rest of their lives in the wild, orcas are VERY social animals. These orcas would die within a couple days of being released. Do some research BEFORE you comment

Yellow Pearl swag jesus, a person who is smart (finally)

Yellow Pearl swag ok they get stressed. Some even prescribe medication to these whales so they don’t feel anxious. They cant survive out in the wild due to some things humans do to them.

Sorry, that's not how it's spelled. It's behavior. In America, at least.

Behaviour is the british english word which most of the world is using - theres alot of these small differences - like color/colour

True, but depending on what country you live in, it could either be spelled correctly, to you, or incorrectly to someone else. So it's neither correct nor incorrect.

No BUT they can be retired to sea sanctuaries where they can live their last years in their natural habitat, they've made SW enough cash, a retirement is the very least they deserve.

Julia Starr they were saved from bad accidents in the ocean

Shamu Stadium it amazes me that you can come on here and try and preach that these animals live in good surroundings and are looked after. I mean come on, they are animals kept in giant swimming pools!!! You can try all you like to claim they are healthy and live a good life but all you are doing is fooling yourself. The world has woken up animal treatment and even seaworld has admitted its failings and are slowly ensuring animal welfare comes before everything else. You are a dying breed who thinks animal entertainment comes before animal rights. Bore off and wake up

Shamu Stadium although blackfish may not be 100% accurate, it was the tipping point for millions of people, it opened their eyes to what really happens. In a lot of countries circuses are banned from using animals and so should aqua parks like sea world. “These animals inspire millions of people” that’s because these animals have no choice!! How anyone can believe using these animals, kept in jumped up large fish tanks is for the greater good needs their head examining.

@Shamu Stadium "@Nicolas Moller Absolutely not! All trainers are formed in marine biology or animal psicology." Is Animal psicology a new field? or are they graduating those who cant properly spell their own arena of study these days? As taken from their own website "For SeaWorld, a college degree is not required to be eligible for an animal training position, but it is preferred." As for pools? www.seaworldofhurt.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/09/orca-bar-graph-2.jpg Yea those bathtubs are real deep. GL misinforming elsewhere.

Nuwan RAJAKARUNA KOTUWEGE would u say the same thing seeing a video of a elephant in a zoo thooo?? NO! Exactly it’s just a water zoo

singer2be EXACTLY!! Yeah they aren’t in their natural habitat but the training helps stimulate them and the trainers spend all day with them, each trainer has a main whale they train and keep entertained and that’s very important for these very smart animals.

@@kennedybeaulieu8313 These poor creatures were not meant for living in tanks there whole lives. I don't blame Tilikum for killing those people at SeaWorld. Those whales at SeaWorld are all stressed out and depressed. These animals should be living in the ocean freely and not in tanks at SeaWorld. Yes, The orca's have killed people at SeaWorld because how stressed they were it's not there fault. Orca's don't kill people in the wild. I think you should watch blackfish because that answer what you said is wrong. And, cats and dogs do live in peoples homes because they are meant to be a house pet they like being around humans and living with them. But a orca is a whole other animal.

Ye, it is amazing to see these killer whales in action but at the end of the day it is cruel.

Manny Calavera This show reminded me why I love these animals and SeaWorld. Blackfish is completely propaganda. It is in fact 85% lies. Most of the "trainers" never even worked at SeaWorld in fact one of the trainers that actually worked at SeaWorld got demoted for kicking an otter. The documentary was made so biased to make it more successful. Dorsal fin collapse is not un healthy for the orcas, it is mainly due to the fact they spend more time up at the surface with their trainers and as there are no bones in the dorsal it droops. It doesn't hurt the orcas in anyway. Orcas are very intelligent animals so they receive lots of different forms of enrichment everyday learning new behaviors for shows is actually very mentally stimulating for them. Also they are not forced to perform. If the orca does not want to do a trick it doesn't do it and that's fine. I've got lots of video evidence of the orcas refusing tricks and the trainers just move on. They are not starved either they are fed three times a day and the food in shows is sort if like an extra treat for them. SeaWorld has not collected orcas from the wild for over 47 years and most of the orcas are still with there mothers. The scene in blackfish where the mother "cries" when her baby is taken away is fake. Katina was opening her mouth on command of a trainer and blackfish added the sounds in. Did you know SeaWorld rescues over 35,000 animals every year including 400 whales and dolphins. These animals are great ambassadors to their species scientists study them each and every day to help save those in the wild. In the wild populations of orcas are near to extinction because of pollution, overfishing, boat traffic ect. They are the orcas we should be worrying about not these well fed orcas in filtered saltwater. It is such a shame to see the company that inspired so many of us to love these beautiful mammals slowly shut down. Hope this cleared a few things up. If you have any questions don't hesitate to ask :)

Rosie Scull legit every comment reply I've clicked on has you on it with the same message over and over😂😂 BTW I disagree with you

Rosie Scull if y'all acutally new what happend in sea worlds tanks and all that u know she is right all their animals get treated very nicely but since the movie ''Blackfish" which shows the whales being tourterd is like he or she said is 85% wrong most people think that the collapsed dorsal fins are a sign of depression and sickeness well then their wrong. Sea world has helped manny marine animals and has actually realsed them. I wouldn't be saying all this if it wasn't true. Unfortunately like most people im against animal captivity i do believe that the should be in the wild but it is nice to know that they take care of their animals.

Rosie Scull they are kept in cages 1% the size of their natural habitat, torn away from their family that they would never choose to leave in the wild. Wild whales roam 100 plus miles a day. How can anyone think this is right? They are meant to be wild, us humans just had to interfere and ruin things as usual

Then five minutes later see an orca breach in the water and go on a rant about how it’s a prison sentence and how cruel it is.... zoos & aquarium zoos are needed to teach/give people the chance to meet animals they will never get the chance to meet. Wild animals in captivity = less people going to the wild to see them and possibly disturb their way of life. These animals are used to this life, most being born in captivity.

Rosie Scull you should have explained what he ask not just copy pasta your comment to every section.

the fin being flopped over is not a sign of depression, but it is a common mistake to make, as it is what we used to believe. we've discovered that it is because when a whale spends large amounts of time at the surface of the water, or an area with low currents, with fin has no support so droops. i hope this helped you! :)

That's the point - they are never able to swim where they were designed to swim... Being stuck at the surface in a small space, not experiencing those depths or currents, is the same as putting them in jail with strangers when they are tight knit, strong families in the wild.

i agree on most of what you said. I don't think 'jail' is the appropriate term for SeaWorld. other companies, yes. SeaWorld, not now. the tanks are small, yes. but they get healthcare and food. I don't agree with Captivity in most cases, but None of SeaWorld's orcas can be released, and it's the best facility in the world. so they can't really go anywhere else without being in a worse spot then they are now. and the SeaWorld 'pods' have become tight knit family groups SeaWorld Orlando, for example. Katina, the matriarch is one of the 3 wild caught orcas left in Seaworlds parks. she is the mother of Nalani and Makaio. Tilikum who used to be the 'bull' of the pod, fathered Makaio, Malia and was a grandfather (but acted like a father) to Trua. Kayla sometimes acts as a surrogate mother to Trua. it's a bit of a twisted pod, but they all acted like most pods would out in the wild. the San Anonio pod is pretty much a tiny wild pod, just in captivity. Takara, the matriarch, is mother to Sakari and Kamea. the other two males, Tuar and Kyuquot and brother and very close. most of SeaWorlds whales don't know what the ocean is.

They have tons of cash...by not going to SW it's not going to hurt the whales, but it will hurt SW's bottom line. I'm so glad they have ended the breeding program too, but I don't trust them and I bet they are trying to figure something else out that...I don't know what that thing is, but it will be for the benefit of SW not the orcas. There have been some crazy ideas, but also some good ones that I think are workable and SW could still even make money, just not as much as they used to.

Rosie Scull not trying to start an argument, but how did they have footage of the "fake trainers" actually swimming with the orcas?

Half of the orcas weren't rescued they were bought and many other organizations rescue animals like orcas and then return them to the wild instead sea-world keeps them in a glorified bath tub

Grace Hughes don't wory seaworld is working on a new tank that has a more natural terrain and is biger there will be no showa

No sorry it is because it is made of cartilage. For a male killer whale, these can get up to 6-7 feet tall. It happens to killer whales that stay on the surface frequently, which does happen in human care, however there is an excellent NatGeo documentary on Netflix about Orcas out in the ocean (I think it was around Washington, but I can't remember) and the male killer whales out there also had it. They even described the whale as the "bull killer whale with the flopped over dorsal fin."

Have you ever been to sea world before? Or have you just watched black fish. They get fed meals before and after the show. The fish that they feed here are treats.

There are orcas in the wild with floped dorsal fins look it up

@@Zb_Calisthenic It's a poor portrayal of how SeaWorld treats their animals. Look at this video. Look at how much those trainers love those whales. kzfaq.info/get/bejne/Y82bdZeWqpevoHU.html

Shush

Borderlands808 what about zoos then? They do the same thing yet no ones complaining about an elephant in a pen????

A K they do.....only not if it’s a sanctuary where they save elephants or any other abused animals, read up/ learn about tyke

I’m not against it at all so you should just stop

I prefer to seeing wild orcas and learning how we can save them from extinction.

They were almost all born there so it’s not like they can just release them. Do your research before white knighting.

I find this so astonishing.. If you would imprison humans, forcing them to such a shitty show infront of a gaping mob just to get their food, and impound them in a space similar underseized compared to their needs, whilst giving them an unquestionable physical supremacy enabeling them to literally eat their jailors for breakfast... Well, we all know how this would end, even if an actual escape from the prison is as impossible as it is for the orcas from "seaworld", it won´t take long before the first janitor get´s killed, i would be highly suprised if it take more than a month.. This makes me wonder why Orcas stay so peaceful confronted with such a maltreatment... Rationality? Forethought? better social-skills`?

GachaGirl507 Tilly didn’t kill Keltie Burns, the other orcas, Haida and Nootka, killed her. The tanks are huge, in Orlando, the tank is 7 million gallons for Nalani, Katina, Malia, Trua, and Makaio. Orcas don’t swim hundreds of miles everyday, and if they do, it’s for food. Orcas live longer in captivity. The orcas are never alone, they are always kept in “groups” for example: Amaya, Ulises, and Kalia Even Tilikum, who was usually kept with Taima or Trua.

kshamenkwaves my god you’re just spewing nonsense

Viktória Macková This show reminded me why I love these animals and SeaWorld. Blackfish is completely propaganda. It is in fact 85% lies. Most of the "trainers" never even worked at SeaWorld in fact one of the trainers that actually worked at SeaWorld got demoted for kicking an otter. The documentary was made so biased to make it more successful. Dorsal fin collapse is not un healthy for the orcas, it is mainly due to the fact they spend more time up at the surface with their trainers and as there are no bones in the dorsal it droops. It doesn't hurt the orcas in anyway. Orcas are very intelligent animals so they receive lots of different forms of enrichment everyday learning new behaviors for shows is actually very mentally stimulating for them. Also they are not forced to perform. If the orca does not want to do a trick it doesn't do it and that's fine. I've got lots of video evidence of the orcas refusing tricks and the trainers just move on. They are not starved either they are fed three times a day and the food in shows is sort if like an extra treat for them. SeaWorld has not collected orcas from the wild for over 47 years and most of the orcas are still with there mothers. The scene in blackfish where the mother "cries" when her baby is taken away is fake. Katina was opening her mouth on command of a trainer and blackfish added the sounds in. Did you know SeaWorld rescues over 35,000 animals every year including 400 whales and dolphins. These animals are great ambassadors to their species scientists study them each and every day to help save those in the wild. In the wild populations of orcas are near to extinction because of pollution, overfishing, boat traffic ect. They are the orcas we should be worrying about not these well fed orcas in filtered saltwater. It is such a shame to see the company that inspired so many of us to love these beautiful mammals slowly shut down. Hope this cleared a few things up. If you have any questions don't hesitate to ask :)

Viktória Macková oo

Viktória Macková. Gurlllllll they harm orca's

Viktória Macková ye

"Do any of you know with absolute certainty, when the last time an orca, killer whale, was taken out of the wild and taken to sea world?" Doesn't change the fact that they still rape the ones already there with false insemination, along with plenty of inbreeding, which very few even survive into adulthood at all if they're not already stillborn. The fact that those past wrongs are now outlawed does NOT change the wrongs they still proceed to do.

I agree 100% with your first paragraph. The second paragraph although a good point needs to be researched a little more. The trainers at Seaworld know what the animals are capable of. They don't just walk into seaworld and get the job. Animal trainers go through college, must have previous experience with animals, initial tests and training, and so much more. They KNOW it's dangerous but it's a passion of theirs and their dream job. I know, even after the supposedly 100% true movie "Blackfish", I want to work at Seaworld as an animal trainer.

Pois é, também essa baleia está triste de estar lá e não estar em sua casa,em seu lar,hoje mesmo vi os documentários e chorei muito

Isso é pela pressão da água da piscina, que é baixa e não sustenta a cartilagem da barbatana

Quando a barbatana delas ficam de lado, isso quer dizer que elas estão ficando desnutridas

Lary Mochi sofrendo

Sim isso é uma verdadera crueldade com as baleias quando a barbatanas delas estão caidas isso significa q alas n estão felizes ou satifeitas com oq eles fazer ou ate mesmo desnutridas essa parque deveria ser fechado tava vendo umas reportagens e deu pra perceber q o ser humano é um ser nojento q só pensa em si próprio!!!

The trainers no longer go in the water now and once all the orcas they have pass away they will no longer be getting anymore. I guess they won't let the ones the have go now because they are Afraid they won't be able to handle the wild

Hannah banana no because they just breed their animals. SeaWorld isn't going to give up their money-makers that easy

But can you blame Tilikum for attacking? The Ocra is held captive against his wishes ofcourse he will snap one day and become brutal.

Emma Frost I never blamed Tilikum. I am just stating how it went down. I hold zero blame towards the whale or Dawn. The greedy corporate owners are the one's I blame

Hussain Reacts I don't mean to say you blamed Tilikum, I mean that as a expression. But I think everyone In Seaworld is to blame.

السلام وعليكم السلام وعليكم باليمن و عليكم سلام عليكم. . لا

Sure wish I knew what Tillikum was thinking when she did that. Especially to Dawn😞

Sam kim SeaWorld’s oldest orca is still 54 years old and healthy.

קאכטכטע

@@tinsote7176 no not healthy

Not all captive killer whales have bent fins. Corky II at Seaworld San Diego has a completely straight one and she's lived there for who knows how long (and yes is still alive today)

CosbyTheCaterpillar "She" dorsal fin collapse is much more common in males.

CosbyTheCaterpillar more to the point, most do have bent fins in captivity

nonsense, it is still just as cruel as ever. Would you like to live in a tiny room your whole life?

Rose Tamang Quit being so ignorant. Those Orcas were never rescued. They had a perfectly fine life in the wild with their families.

U play roblox?

There dorsal fins have no bone structure so its a cause of them being out of the water to long aka WATER PRESSURE

@@yourboringoldfriend2096 look at a wild orca and there fins are fine, but when you look at the whales fins when they are in captivity they are almost always drooping. In killer whales this is a sign of depression

@fleet yeet no adult boy orca have bent dorsal fins too

No bone= flopped fin and it’s spelled they’re

Please watch some documentaries. These whales are not happy and not well taken care of.

I hear you - its appaling really that in this day and age we have to put with stuff like that.

มันคืออาชีพความฝันที่เราอยากเป็น

Phoebe Baisch XD

Chassity Thomas ikr it is abuse to the animals and is an unnatural thing for the orcas to be doing
