Keep Calm and Read 'Death at SeaWorld'

In addition to watching Blackfish, reading 'Death at SeaWorld' by David Kirkby will provide anyone that is interested with a groundbreaking insight into the darker side of SeaWorld. It has been on The New York Times best seller list and has been widely credited for its scientific expose of the cruelty orcas endure at the hands of marine parks. 

'Death at SeaWorld' embarks on a journey that begins with documenting where orcas originate from in the wild to how they became global entertainers in the human world. It provides readers with an in depth analysis into how intelligent orcas are which points to one of the many reasons that they should not be used for entertainment purposes. 

'Death at SeaWorld' also offers an alternative outcome for orcas in captivity. It discusses the option to humanely release orcas to sea pens where they could live out the duration of their lives in an environment that is as close to the wild as possible for these emotionally damaged animals.
