Urge SeaWorld to FREE all Orcas, Don't let them die in Captivity

Approximately a year ago, SeaWorld announced that they would no long make the Orcas perform for audiences. While it marked some progress, they still continued to breed Orcas in captivity. New generations were doomed to live their lives in captivity. Their have been over 65 deaths of Orcas at SeaWorld. SeaWorld is not concerned for the welfare of the animals that sustain their livelihood. Orcas are meant to live in free flowing seawater, not in a cesspool, where they are prone to respiratory or digestive ailments which limits their live span. Today, March 18, 2016, SeaWorld announced that it would halt their breeding program. The current generation of Orcas, are the last Orcas to be bred for profit. It may seem as a victory for Orcas but it is not the case. While they will no longer have to perform or bred, they will remain captive the rest of their natural lives. I want to urge SeaWorld to FREE the Orcas now in captivity. There are at least t seven Orcas whom are living a life of solitude. These Orcas have been in captivity for over 30 years, and now, after their mates or offspring have died, they are alone in the pools they have lived in all their lives. Since SeaWorld in no longer planning to breed them, and therefore no more offspring or mates to keep them company, I wish to urge SeaWorld to set them FREE, so they can live the rest of their lives in the ocean. I urge the powers that be, please consider my and (our) request to set them FREE. And, please don't transfer them to another sea park where they may facethe same abuse and loneliness as seen at SeaWorld.

Sincerely,
