    The loss of life is regrettable, but a killer whale is still a killer whale. The report itself states that the Orca named Tilikum, has been involved in at least 2 other deaths before this incident, and it was behaving oddly just before the incident. The warning signs were there, but they didn't take heed I guess.

    Agreed, whilst I am not totally unsympathetic.

    There are certain realistic expectations that one should have when working around wild animals, especially large carnivores.

    >"< whales have moods. I have the impression that Sea World put the moody whale on show despite knowing this. They are asking for it to be happen.
