Killer Whale Kills Trainer at Sea World!
Today Orlando's SeaWorld suspended its famous Orca show. Due to one Killer Whale named Tilikum, nicknamed Telly. Who killed the female trainer there. She was pronounced dead at the scene at around 2pm today. One witness said the Orca (who is not one of the whales that trainers get in the water with) rose out from the water and grabbed the trainer by the waist and shook her violently. This 30 year old, particular Killer Whale was the largest in his size in captivity. Weighing five tons. We know this is a great tragedy, but nothing to be astonished by since this Killer Whale has killed before. He drowned a biology student in 1991. Also someone who broke into his cage and got in his tank was then found dead, naked and draped over his back in 1999. Why did they allow this whale to continue on doing shows knowing that it has killed two people already? Well, experts say these previous incidents were not attacks but misguided attempts by the docile whale to play. They also said they do not know what set the whale off, and do not know when the Orca show will resume. Until further notice the water park is closed until this weekend. The Killer Whale was said to be stressed, this was the reason they feel it attacked the trainer. How you feel about this? Until then.....
