keeping wild animals in captivity is really lovely

she gave birth to five calves in captivity and they all died before her, and despite being an extremely social animal, she's been alone for over a decade. but hey she's dead at least which is the closest she ever got to freedom

here is a drone video taken of her a couple years ago

NOBODY,IN THE HISTORY OF EVER, HAS ASKED OR CARED WHAT CANADA THINKS. YOU ARE NOT A COUNTRY. YOUR MONEY HAS THE QUEEN OF ENGLAND ON IT. IF YOU DIG AROUND IN YOUR BACKYARD, NATIVE SKELETONS WOULD EXPLODE OUT OF YOUR LAWN LIKE THE END OF POLTERGEIST. CANADA IS SO POLITE, EH?

It is guaranteed to be lazy, ignorant, and/or uninformed.
There's definitely a connection between this Orca dying and Robert Blake dying. Possibly murder suicide. I don't have all the details.

"Contrary to what you may have seen in movies, theme park investors are actually docile, even playful creatures, who have never harmed a human being in the wild or in captivity!"

The last time I was in Niagara Falls the tourist brochure had a list of people who were legal obligated to take back their allegations against Marineland. It was loving grim.

They'd lobotomize their guests in a giant brain corkscrew machine that drills into their heads as they walk through the entrance gates before they'd ever do anything to impact their cash cow shows

I will not shut up about the Mighty Morphin Power Rangers. I talk about them all the time and work them into every conversation I have. I built a shrine in my room for the yellow one who died because sadly no one noticed because she died around 9/11. Wanna see it?
