SeaWorld Orlando: General Discussion

I think people went a bit crazy dogpiling on them after all the issues they had with Tillikum. My personal thought is that I will see the shows if I happen to be there and I have seen the shows in the past, but I am pleased that they committed to ending their captive breeding programme so that at some point in the probably not too distant future the orca shows will naturally fade out of existence so the direction of the park might naturally change.

I don't know what to make of dolphin shows or the places like Discovery Cove where you can pet and ride with them. They are just as intelligent as orcas, if not more, but because they seem "nicer" it's more acceptable to use them like this for some reason.
Do we know roughly how far that is away? How many orcas they have left etc?
