SeaWorld Controversy

SeaWorld has been one of the biggest theme parks in the world since it was founded in the 1960’s but has since then ran into lots of controversial issues regarding how they treat their animals. Various campaigns have been launched to try and stop Seaworld’s maltreatment of their orcas.
