As an animal rights activist, I represent the well being of the animals.  Sea World is pretending that they are what's best for the whales, yet they are depressed in their cages.  In the wild, they are peaceful creatures, happy with straight dorsal fins.  When they are captured, taken away from their family, locked away to be beaten by others and forced to follow commands, they become aggressive and miserable and their fins will flop down.  When there is tension in the pool, there is no where for the animals to run.  They are beaten by other whales and some even commit suicide by ramming their heads into the wall.  These animals are injured, both inside and out.  Tillikum was angered and scared and acted out.  Humans would do the same thing in that position.  Imagine if you were trapped in a cage with other people and someone was trying to control you.  It's understandable to act out.  We need to stop the capturing of the whales in the first place to that everyone can be safe and happy.  Sea World is putting everyone in a painful position, so that they can make money.  The world needs to help stop Sea World and save the animals and everyone around them.
