Zoologist Speaks Out

admin — Sat, 06 Mar 2010 02:22:03 +0000

VICTORIA – A prominent Victoria Zoologist says killer whales are intelligent, thinking beings who live with families.
Anna Hall says it isn’t possible to provide the massive orcas with an adequate habitat in captivity.

Hall has been part of the whale watching industry since 1995 and says it is dangerous to swim with any killer whale especially in a confined space.

She believes there are far better ways to educate people about killer whales than keeping them in captivity.

But she also acknowledges the value of SeaWorld and similar operations which she says have helped change the social perspective of killer whales.

Last week a trainer at SeaWorld Orlando was killed by Tilikum, a 5400 kilogram orca.

The whale was also involved in the deaths of two other people including a trainer at the former Sealand of the Pacific in Oak Bay.

A memorial service was held Monday in Chicago for Dawn Brancheau, the trainer who was killed in Florida.
