MaMaShiShi 0 Posted February 25, 2010 Oh this is really tragic. She had so much experience, but an accidental fall into the water can get you in trouble. So sad. She was probably doing what she loved. What a unique career. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
musicchick581 0 Posted February 25, 2010 Yeah. Someone on my FB posted that it wouldn't happen if they didn't hold them captive. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
musicchick581 0 Posted February 25, 2010 apparently it has happened several times. I read that one guy was injured three times. I'm not sure if your article is the same one. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Tiddly Winks 0 Posted February 25, 2010 That is very sad. Kind of reminds me of when Steve Irwin died. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Chiaretta 0 Posted February 25, 2010 That's really a sad story, but I think those kind of animals shouldn't be kept in captivity.... they should be free in the ocean! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kasijab 0 Posted February 25, 2010 It brings it all into perspective when you think that these animals ..sorry mammals, are WILD ..don't get me wrong, I watched the show myself only 2 months ago and was in awe of what they were doing ...but any animal on a bad day can snap ..and maybe that is what happened here ...but the clue is in its name...they are KILLER WHALES ..and anybody, no matter how experienced, that gets in the water with them knows full well the risk they are taking.

I know this is probably going to make some people angry at and im sorry if i do....butwhat did that girl do to the wale to make it grab her...Did she do anything before hand..Teasing or tapping its nose for something....You never know...She may have made the wale angray at her.Maby it wasnt entirly the wales fult.Im not sure if thats gonna sound horrible to other people because i tend not to explain myself properly,,,but you should get whan i mean..Like an eleephant never forgets....maby she did something to the wale in the past and the wale just wanted its ovn back =/.It is sad for the girl tho...Whats going to happen to the wale now tho? Is he gonna be killed =(?? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ponyboycurtis 0 Posted February 26, 2010 Maybe the whale was sick of eating little treats and was bored, maybe he knew if he did this he may be killed and that would be better for him. Remeber hes an animal and is not meant to be trained, release him to the wild i say! its all there fault not the whales, let him be free! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
xPink.Pixel.Princessx 0 Posted February 26, 2010 Yes thats another thing pony...Animals like wales should be where they belong in their own habbitats...They should have to perform for other peoples pleasure.Its kinda sad. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
