From everything I read, there has been a drastic decline in SeaWorld ticket sales, because of a beautiful little film called "Blackfish". I highly encourage you to watch it before you purchase tickets and plan to go to SeaWorld. I know for sure that I will never step foot in a Seaworld park (or any other park associated with SW) again.
Everyone deserves to know the truth behind the supposed "Shamu smile".
Now, since no actual animals are tortured at
Disneyland, we will gladly spend our money there instead.
