Free Willy

I know you all have been to Marine Land, Sea World or any other marine life "habitat". You've also seen the commercials of the cute and friendly dolphins that everyone loves, but he truth that you don't see is these animals are being stripped from the wild, and their families just for the factor of human entertainment. As seen in this picture to the right, the killer whales dorsal fin is flopped over. This is what happens when a whale is kept in a small tank. The collapse of the dorsal fin is very rare in the wild.                                                                                      The whales that you find in these facilities generally have major mental trauma from the fact that that they are being man handled and stripped from everything they know, and confined to the confines of the fish bowl like conditions. From this mental trauma they can become mentally unstable. The reports from newspapers, television news, and online news groups, occasionally say a whale will kill someone. They place full blame on the whales, and pity the deceased trainer. In my opinion these trainers should not be pitied, but instead shamed. They willingly walk into a tank with a killer whale, that is mentally unstable from the actions of that said trainer. How is the whale to be blamed? Is it truly whales fault for being that way? He would have been normal if he was not stripped from his pod and man handled. 


The picture above is a picture of a dolphin being stripped from his pod, and after this mentally traumatic kidnapping, will be sold.  This traumatic event will soon find them in the same situation as the killer whales. So the next time you see a Marine Land or Sea World commercial, just remember every single one of those animals were kidnapped from there homes.
