    Turns out the trainer had a tuna sandwich in his front pocket.

    If I was an intelligent creature denied my instincts and kept away from my natural habitat in a tiny tank of water, I might go crazy too.

    Oh can it PETA.


    Elephants in zoos may live on average 30 years less than Elephants in the wild, but at least they don't have to worry about being self-sufficient.

    I alway wondered how you can get in the water with an animal who's name includes "Killer" in it. I mean there are Blue whales,Sperm whales, Baluga whales, but none of those names provide the information that "Killer whale" does. What if your neighbor was named "Killer Bob" would you go have a few beers with him?

    I went to Sea World San Antonio in 03. Showed up at the Shamu show early because the family was doing something else. I got picked to come and be involved in the show and pet the whale during the show.

    now the funny thing about this story and i'm not kidding, is that a friend was in SeaWorld at the same time and I had no idea, he knew i was in san antone but I didn't have my cell because I had lost it.

    he saw the show right after the one i was involved in.
