If you’ve seen Blackfish, the documentary on breeding killer whales at Sea World, you probably know that many people have boycotted the controversial marine park. Sea World has bred and confined killer whales against the whales’ better interest. Whales kept in captivity tend to become aggressive, but Sea World has denied all accusations that trainers are getting hurt or killed while training the whales, claiming instead that the incidents result from “human error”.

The aquatic theme park announced in March it would be “moving in a new direction” and stop breeding. While most of the orcas were born at the parks, and the park hasn’t captured wild whales in almost 4 decades, it can’t release them into the ocean or they will die. They have released information detailing their planned conservation efforts. California’s Coastal Commission last year approved a $100 million expansion at Sea World San Diego, but only if it ends captive breeding at the location.
