Orca breeding is finally ending in SeaWorld which is a swim-stroke in the right direction. However, these beautiful creatures still are being  kept in captivity: isolated from the rest of the living beings of the ocean. I hope that one day all big, beautiful, orca whales can swim not only safely from being captured, but freely in clean, unpolluted waters. According to SeaWorld's website, "SeaWorld reaffirms its commitment not to collect marine mammals from the wild. It has not collected an orca from the wild in almost 40 years, and the orcas at SeaWorld were either born there or have spent almost their entire lives in human care. These orcas could not survive in oceans that include environmental concerns such as pollution and other man-made threats." This still does not change the fact that these whales are still being kept in captivity and are still being displayed for entertainment purposes. Hopefully some better changes will come for these natural and wild creatures. Our oceans need to be cleaner, not just for the whales but for other fish and sea mammals, inhabitants and plants.
