Read or listen to the book "Beneath the Surface" by a trainer of many years and involved with Sea World parks in the US and a park in France. He speaks of all the orcas by name with many stories. Corky is repeatedly mentioned, before commenting for or against check the book out.

Most of Corky's pod died. Her mother dies almost 30 years ago. The poid has been destroyed bny humans eatin gb their food spurce, salmon and encroachment. Ofrca's kioll themselves when they afre not happy. Corky at 60 will not survive. She is an older femaler. \No captive trained orca has ever successfvully been returned to the wild. NONE!. Keiko only lived 9 monthbs on his own in the wild in 2003 after being released on his own 2002. Kieko died alosne!!! u people are morons. go free the elephan ts in zoos they live i9n tiny pens they can hardly room enoiugh to walk and you have no issues with thatr dujm hypocrite!!!

I would never go to seaworld

Bc keiko did so well in being put back in the wild..

Keiko is not a good example. We actually know Corky's family. Keiko's family was UNKOWN. We did integrate a baby orca with her relatives - Springer. They recognized she spoke the language and integrated her and got her to adapt. She was one of theirs. If they could get Corky back to her mother, they'd help her. It's wrong to separate her from her mother and family.

@@Bazza5000 There's no way Corky could possibly adapt after decades spent in captivity.

DONT GO TO SEA WORLD!!!!

This makes me so sad. Shame in SeaWorld. The veterinarian shouldn't be a veterinarian if he doesn't know about natural instincts. They never forget, they are like elephants in the water. Example: I never taught my hunting dog how to hunt, her instincts love to hunt and track. Start putting live salmon and fish in her pool and I guarantee she will know how to eat them. Her pod will accept her back because she has the language with her pod. Because of their lack of knowledge of orcas this is animal abuse! Where is OSHA? Her living conditions are awful, lets get her out!!! What can we do?? Can we buy her?

U can't afford to buy her. How silly

This is basically slavery for our entertainment. I would NEVER go to Seaworld. I won't buy any Budweiser products, either.

Yes, it's sad she's in Seaworld, but if she was to be released today, she would get sick and pass away out in the wild, like Keiko did. She's the oldest, and therefore, more likely to get infections and/or sick or something worse. But, I will say this: She should be in a seapen!

Keiko became sick because of human contact.if corky was put back in the sea after rehabilitation with her family, she might get a chance if things are done well to cut contact with humans.We must try. We MUST give her a chance instead of using her freedom to make happy some children that might forget that show anyways

@@Fox.White. Except it's not possible. For starters, she has no family that she knows. Her siblings were born after she was captured and her mother is dead. Her pod would be a bunch of strangers to her. She has been in captivity for 50+ years, you don't just 'cut contact with humans' after all that, especially for a whale that loves and trusts them as much as she does. She's old, she's the adoptive mother of every young orca she lives with, she gets along with all of them (except Ulises). By ripping her away from them and dumping her, first alone in a sea pen and then in the wild, you're doing exactly what you blame SeaWorld for. Right now, there's plans to rehabilitate Lolita, the second oldest orca in captivity. It's not going well. She's sick and doesn't tolerate change yet they want to start moving her around asap. They're not trying to release her for her benefit, but for the sake of the activists. It won't be any different with Corky. She's well where she is now.

1. Their Sunburns Are Covered Up With Black Zinc Oxide Orcas at SeaWorld spend most of their time floating listlessly at the surface of the water with little to no shade from the hot blistering sun. In the wild, orcas spend up to 95 percent of their time submerged and would find shade in the depths of the ocean, but at SeaWorld their tanks are far too shallow. Their deepest tank is 40 feet deep-not nearly deep enough to give them a reprieve from the harsh elements. Because of this, orcas have perpetual sunburns, which are shielded from the public eye with the help of black zinc oxide, which matches their skin. Although zinc oxide is also used as a sunblock, orcas almost always have sunburn before it is applied. 2. Some Orcas Were Kidnapped and Sent to SeaWorld Five orcas currently at SeaWorld were kidnapped from their ocean homes, as were others who have since died. For example, Tilikum, a 32-year-old orca, was captured at the age of 2 by a marine “cowboy.” Tilikum wasn’t taken from his natural environment because he was injured-instead, he was torn away from his family against his will and confined to a small concrete tank for a hefty profit. 3. Killed If Not Captured In 1965, the first-ever orca show at SeaWorld was performed by a female orca named Shamu at SeaWorld San Diego. During Shamu’s capture, her mother was shot with a harpoon and killed before the young orca’s very eyes by a marine “cowboy” named Ted Griffin. Griffin’s partner, Don Goldsberry, later worked for SeaWorld and was assigned to bring orcas into the park. He continued kidnapping and slaughtering orcas, and at one point, he hired divers to slit open the bellies of four orcas, fill them with rocks, put anchors around their tails, and sink them to the bottom of the ocean so that their deaths would not be discovered. 4. Trainers Masturbate the Whales to Collect Sperm In nature, orcas choose their own mates. But at SeaWorld, orcas are forced to breed on a regular basis. Male orcas are trained to float on their backs, and their trainers masturbate them to collect their sperm. Females are artificially inseminated and forced to breed at a much younger age than they would in nature. Katina is used as a virtual breeding machine and is even being inbred with her own sons. 5. Unsafe For SeaWorld’s Trainers SeaWorld’s corporate incident log contains reports of more than 100 incidents of orca aggression at its parks, often resulting in injuries to humans and even causing one death by extensive internal bleeding. Following a 2006 attack by an orca on a trainer at SeaWorld in San Diego, the California Division of Occupational Safety and Health concluded that it was “only a matter of time” before someone was killed while interacting with the orcas. A further investigation into these attacks could have prevented injuries and deaths. 6. Orcas In Captivity Have A Shorter Lifespan Orcas in the wild have an average life expectancy of 30 to 50 years-their estimated maximum life span is 60 to 70 years for males and 80 to more than 100 for females. The median age of orcas in captivity is only 9. 7. Collapsed Dorsal Fins Are Not Normal or Healthy In captivity, all male orcas have collapsed dorsal fins as adults, which is a sign of an unhealthy orca. SeaWorld claims that this condition is common and natural for all orcas. However, collapsed dorsal fins are caused by the unnatural environment of captivity and are rarely seen in the wild. Only 1 to 5 percent of male orcas in some populations (and none in others) have fully collapsed dorsal fins. 8. Trainers are Performers, not Biologists Contrary to popular belief, trainers often have no formal education in marine biology. Their main purpose is to entertain and put on a “good” show for visitors, not educate people about the intelligence, social nature, or natural families, foraging behavior, and habitats of the animals held at SeaWorld. 9. SeaWorld Fails to Care for Animals On January 11, 2012, the USDA issued an official warning to SeaWorld San Antonio for its “repeated failure to provide drain covers that are securely fastened in order to minimize the potential risk of animal entrapment”-a violation that resulted in the death of a sea lion.In March 2013, prompted by PETA’s complaint about a child who had been bitten by a dolphin at SeaWorld, the USDA conducted an investigation and cited the marine park for several violations of the Animal Welfare Act, including the use of expired surgical materials, some almost a decade old. The USDA also documented that a dolphin tank and the areas surrounding the orca performance tank were in disrepair and contained cracked and crumbling concrete and rusty beams that could pose a threat to the health and safety of both the animals and workers. The USDA pointed out that the unsafe conditions “might create a health risk if these pieces of concrete fall off into the pool and get ingested, or if they become abrasive” and that they “do not facilitate cleaning and disinfection.” 10. Animals Suffer in Cramped, Unnatural Living Conditions SeaWorld confines whales and dolphins-who often swim up to 100 miles a day in the wild-to tanks that, to them, are the size of a bathtub. SeaWorld presents itself as a family establishment full of fun “educational” activities. However, these activities harm animals physically and emotionally. SeaWorld has the financial means and ability to create coastal sanctuaries, where the orcas would have a more natural and less stressful life and where they could feel the tides and waves; see, sense, and communicate with their wild relatives and other ocean animals; and engage in other natural behavior that they are now denied. However, the park instead chooses to stick with the same inhumane business model that it has used for 50 years, despite all the violent and deadly incidents and evidence of harm. Please say NO to SeaWorld and its enslavement of animals by refusing to buy a ticket to this abusement park, and ask the marine park to release these animals to sanctuaries.
