No statement from PETA? I mean, if a trainer killed one whale (let alone 3) they'd be demanding a public execution.

Imbev, a Belgian beer company, recently bought Anheiser Busch, and is rumored to be selling off the parks and sticking with what they know; beer. I am wondering how these events are affecting Sea World's parent company and would guess a statement is forthcoming.


There was a wild rumor that PETA would buy and release some animals, including the whales.

This would be a far fetched idea for sure.

My feelings are mixed about captive wild animals, but feel horrible.

In any event, the death is horrible.

At two million a whale, I do not think so. PETA is a joke and no one takes them serious. If they weren't so over the top, maybe they could have some influence rather than people doing things in spite of PETA.

PETA is like the Klan issuing a statement. Very few if any are going to take action on their words, the rest think it's a joke.
