ITA with the spokesman for Seaworld, he/she put it very well. I can't stand when people just don't seem to understand the reasoning behind parks like Seaworld & zoo's. If not for them, these animals would be dead. I would much rather they do what they do so the animals can live & at the same time educate people in hopes that compassion will be spread.

Can't wait to go see ALL of the animals at Seaworld & Busch Gardens Tampa in less than two weeks.

I will now spend even more money there when we go in 2 weeks.

PETA is such a trash organization and THEY are the ones who needs to be shut down. They kill more animals annually than anyone. Go to PETAKILLSANIMALS.COM for more info on that. Whats worse is some of the footage shown is not footage of Seaworld. That Killer whale in the video is Lolita from the Miami Seaquarium. That isn't the pool that Seaworld's whales live in, that is the pool that Lolita from the Miami Seaquarium lives in. That is MIAMI SEAQUARIUM not Seaworld. That manatee pool is a rehabilitation pool for sick and injured manatees where they live for a day until they are transported either back to its natural waters or in the bigger manatee exhibit at Seaworld.

You could always donate to the Seaworld and Busch Gardens Conservation Fund while you are there. That is an organization that actually puts it's money out there to HELP animals...as opposed to PETA; who's money is spent on pulling publicity stunts.

Sea World gets my money! All I have to do is look at the animals that recently were released after rescue and rehab by Sea World. Keep up the good work Sea World!

If PETA says it's bad, then that tells me it's exactly the right thing to do.

What makes it worse is that they show the manatee when talking about dolphins. Last time I checked, manatees and dolphins are not the same animal.
