SeaWorld has animals, whales and dolphins, that would be better off in the wild than trapped in tanks and forced to perform. The safety of both the humans and the animals would be better if separated. SeaWorld shouldn’t be able to have whales and dolphins in their parks because it hurts the life expectancy of the animals, the peoples safety is in danger, and the health of the animal can be affected greatly.

“There’s nothing natural about a lion, or tiger, or killer whale, jumping through a hoop or standing vertically to obtain a food reward.” (“Welcome Progress on captive wildlife” 1). When I was a little girl, I loved to see animals doing tricks. After doing some research, now I know some shows are wrong.
