Seaworld's So called Facts 1

 Seaworld are attempting to address the things they see as being lies.
This one Whales Live as long at Seaworld is very easily addressed in very few words.

Their article says

My name is Chris, and I’m a veterinarian at SeaWorld. My entire professional life has been focused on the care and welfare of animals, including killer whales.
You might have heard attacks from PETA saying our killer whales live only a fraction as long as whales in the wild. They say, “In captivity, orcas’ average life span plummets to just nine years.”
But the author of an independent study, Dr. Douglas DeMaster, of the Alaska Fisheries Science Center, was quoted in The Wall Street Journal as saying, “Survival in the wild is comparable to survival in captivity.”
There’s no other way to say it … PETA is not giving you the facts.
SeaWorld has several killer whales in their 30s and one that is close to 50 — right in line with what is seen in the wild. In fact, a July 2014 Associated Press (AP) report analyzing 50 years of data from the federal Marine Mammal Inventory Report found that killer whales born at our parks “had an average life expectancy of 46 years.”
It’s frustrating that PETA gets a lot of attention by twisting statistics and falsely attacking us. As someone who cares for these incredible animals, their health and well-being is my priority every day. Just like doctors, we veterinarians take an oath. If PETA’s accusations were true, I wouldn’t work here.
When SeaWorld opened its doors 50 years ago, global understanding of killer whales was just beginning. The world has changed a lot since then, and SeaWorld has continued to change with it. Today, our whales live as long as those in the wild, and our study of them is helping conservationists better understand and protect killer whales and other marine animals everywhere.
– Chris Dold, Veterinarian, SeaWorld

The response - Remember this Mr Dold??   Also a Seaworld vet who stated he was working on a full set of Seaworld's own data and WHALES DO NOT LIVE AS LONG AT SEAWORLD.You need 30:00 to 34:00

Point made.

10 things you probably didn't know about SeaWorld activists BEGGING TO BE ANSWERED

This interesting view recently appeared and is just begging to be answered lol. 

You may of heard of these people who are basically against SeaWorld and try to tell people to stay away. But here are 10 things you might not know about SeaWorld activists.
10. Online SeaWorld activists like to be offensive, derogatory, and racist. Most SeaWorld activists that I know of get too far such as comparing SeaWorld supporters to nazis and orcas to jews, SeaWorld workers to ISIS and dolphins to Jordanian pilots. Almost ALL SeaWorld activists say that african-american slaves were the equivalent of all of SeaWorld’s animals. PETA who is a group that protests SeaWorld has even compared orcas to God’s children.
I would suggest you check Stand with Seaworld, what it is you call us, Peta Nazi's. I think you should also check out some of the things said to us, I have first hand experience of being called by Seaworld fans even being told they liked to f my dead mother. Lovely people!! What most people like me find is, if you refuse to be dragged into an argument and just keep giving facts and official document links, the Seaworld fans over and over resort to name calling as a defence and if that doesn't work they block you. 
There are many more if you want them.

9. SeaWorld activists assume that buying a single ticket to SeaWorld cause Taiji to kill 10,000 dolphins which is down right extremist. 20,000 visitors visit SeaWorld Orlando daily and 10,000 x 20,000 = 200,000,000. If this was true, then there would be no dolphins in the wild.
Take a look at Seaworld's collaboration in the wild caught industry here 
Fred Jacobs speaks for Seaworld not you and he said -  ‘We stopped [buying] and have not resumed, not because we are ashamed, but it was not something that we cared to be involved with any more.’
And the reason they say they cannot condemn other parks 
  “We do not want to be accused of being disingenuous,” Jacobs explained. “If we go to an aquarium in China and say ‘You guys should not be involved,’ the first thing out of their mouths will be, ‘Well, you did it,’ and we cannot argue that point.” See full interview here
Don't presume that Activist think buying one ticket is what Taiji is about when Seaworld themselves admit the marines parks would say ''Well you did it, and we cannot argue that point''

8. SeaWorld activists post many death threats toward people who support SeaWorld rescues and have said that SeaWorld’s rescues is the equivalent of a murderer giving money to homeless. SeaWorld has never killed any animals or has supported Taiji. 
Show me where they are as this one is total and utter lies. See above for Fred Jacobs SEAWORLD'S OWN SPOKEMAN on Taiji!
7. SeaWorld activists have claimed that SeaWorld killed Dawn Brancheau but it was Tilikum, an orca who thought that Dawn’s ponytail was a toy instead of the trainer he was working with.
Seaworld blamed Dawn for her own death, her autopsy report and consequent court case proved it was nothing to do with a pony tail at all. a bit of research before posting would be a good idea. Read the last line of this from the court transcript!

6. SeaWorld activists are against ANY organization, person, community, and company that owns whales or dolphins for any reason. No matter how well it has been cared for, been born in captivity, or if the cetacean has been rescued from harm or death. SeaWorld activists are against all zoos and aquariums. They’re even against dolphin rescue centers and sanctuaries.  
They are not against rescue and rehab centers as unfortunately there are no vet clinics in the ocean. What they are against is for reason like the pilot whales Seaworld 'rescued' not fit enough to be released, but fit enough to be in shows. Then of course there is JJ, Seaworld has to have credit that they did a good job, but also fail to tell people that is wasn't them who rescued her at all, and they refused to help, refused to provide transport and only took her after a massive press release. Check out her rescue and Seaworlds refusal here
5. SeaWorld activists have been known to hack many pro caps such as SeaWorld Isaac’s facebook page for speaking out the truth and SeaWorld San Diego’s twitter was possibly hacked for being an official SeaWorld account. Cyber bullying has been stopped many times and future incidents will likely not happen in the future.
Who the heck is Seaworld Isaac and what makes you think any sort of hacking is down to any activist? 
4. SeaWorld activists claim they care about animals living in SeaWorld yet they never tried any attempt to airlift them into the wild which can harm the animals with diseases and a wild environment they have never experienced before. They think holding signs while yelling like children is brave and helps animals. The animals might be annoyed with these protesters and would rather enjoy the upcoming Blue World Project.
How do you know they would rather enjoy the Blue World project lol? Of course they never tried any attempt to airlift them into the wild! Why would you say something like that? 
On the other hand Seaworld regular moved their orcas around when it suited them for breeding purposes, separating mothers from their offspring,  and sent their 'excess' orcas to Spain, and often fly orcas around the country without a thought for their wellbeing, its not the protestors that do that it is Seaworld themselves.

Take note of the Seaworld wetsuits!
3. SeaWorld activists on Facebook and Twitter say that when they get blocked by SeaWorld supporters, it means they couldn’t handle the “truth” yet most of them block SeaWorld supporters for speaking out the real truth and exposing lies of the activists.
This is also not true at all, my page has never had anyone blocked, but ALL the Seaworld pages and those written by Eric block everyone with a differing opinion, have you ever thought it is because they don't want you to see the truth. when was the last time one of those pages posted a Seaworld animal profile? When did they post a necropsy report, a court report, a vet report? They don't because they don't want you to find things out for yourself and many of you don't want to go and look either. 
Take for instance the FACT that Seaworld orcas ARE given tranquilizing drugs, the fact that a nursing mother was given the same drugs. That isn't made up that is a documented FACT. When did Seaworld pages post that for you to read as it is most definitely proven truth, see for yourself. 
2. SeaWorld activists have donated organizations that kill animals for no reason such as PETA. They feel that humans should never have interaction with any other animal for any reason. They rather see pets die than be owned by people

Once again you are clearly falling into the distraction hype that Seaworld shill pages give the likes of you. PETA is one organisation protesting against Seaworld. Many activists protest them too as they do not agree with the kill policy. Sick and suffering animals fair enough but not healthy ones as in the case of Maya.  However Seaworld try to shift the focus onto that rather than onto what they themselves have done, in their short 50 years all these cetaceans have died in Seaworld tanks and PETA had nothing to do with that, PETA didn't have any access to Seaworld tanks or their inhabitants Seaworld own those deaths by themselves and need to explain them all. Check out the Marine Mammal Inventory they are all documented there as Seaworld has to report the deaths and they can all be seen by everyone
1. Some of the former SeaWorld trainers that so called “care” for the animals, have abused animals. Sea lion trainer Dean Gomersall was fired by SeaWorld for kicking an otter he wanted to perform. Orca trainer Jeffrey Venture was fired for putting his head into an orca mouth that caused it to be aggressive. SeaWorld has fired them for one good reason. They want their animals to stay safe. 
Once again yo haven't researched this either. 
Dean Gomersall - 
One day he was doing a training session with two small-clawed river otters, called Trixie and Bubba. The session involved sending the two otters to a target, and then calling one to the exit gate (the other was supposed to remain on the target). No big deal, except Trixie was in heat. Gomersall could call Bubba to the gate without any problem, while Trixie remained in the enclosure, on the target. But if he called Trixie to the gate, Bubba would not stay on the target, and would not let her go. With the session going poorly, Gomersall took a break, and left to go work with some other animals. Before he did, he slid down the plastic slider on the exit gate, which was used to keep the otters from messing with any other otters on the other side of the gate.Fifteen minutes later he returned, opened the gate, and saw blood all over the floor of the enclosure. As best Gomersall could figure, Bubba must have stuck his nose under the gate as Gomersall was dropping the slider down, and the slider cut Bubba’s nose (Gomersall hadn’t noticed anything because you can’t see through the slider). He immediately called for help and Bubba was treated.
See the full account here  

Jeff Ventre was not fired for putting his head in an orcas mouth either so once again you have that all wrong - 
After achieving the title of “Senior Trainer,” Jeffrey Ventre was fired from SeaWorld for kissing a whale’s tongue, breaking their tongue tactile protocol.

 This was the incident involving Jeff Ventre, that also was not as Seaworld stated, but when people became disillusioned with Seaworld, their usual response is to lie and they did again. Trainers at Seaworld were still doing this long after Jeff had gone.

So you probably now know. Those crazy people that say orcas are the equivalent of african american slaves, are also hypocritical.

 Without sounding offensive this article makes you look stupid as you have researched nothing at all, provided no factual evidence and proved that most Seaworld fans are lead along by hype and NOT by actual FACTS. Court transcripts, necropsy reports, autopsy reports etc are legal documents which cannot be altered or be fictitious. The judges and medical examiners have no agenda, no business to protect with lies, they are just doing their jobs and whether the facts prove that Seaworld and their shill pages are actually lying to the fans has no consequence to them, their priority is to do the job they are paid to do regardless of who is affected by it, the truth is the truth.

Maybe now you will research these things for yourself and see that the things you have been led to believe are actually not true before you put things like this into a document. 

Maybe now you will ask those pages you frequent, why don't they post official paperwork? Why don't they post the court cases, the autopsy reports when they know that Seaworld are covering things up.

There are many FACTS, LINKS, DOCUMENTS here, go and take a look for yourself and educate yourself as to why people protest Seaworld, what scientists know about the orcas and check how many trainer and near death incidents it took before those poor trainers were taken out of the water. 
Maybe then you will see the true Seaworld you seem to want to try to protect!
